How to enrol
Our courses are generally run over three terms and start in September/October, January and April.
We recommend that you enrol as early as you can for any courses that you are interested in because:
- popular courses fill up quickly
- courses with insufficient applicants may be cancelled
We will contact you if we cannot accept your application for any reason.
In rare instances a course may fill up during the enrolment process. If this occurs a member of staff will contact you to arrange a refund or transfer to another course.
To enrol on a course:
- Browse the courses that are currently available to find one that is suitable for you;
- Once you have found a suitable course, click on the ‘Enrol now’ button;
- You will automatically be directed to our online shop to purchase the course;
- We will then contact you with further information regarding the registration process.
Should you experience any problems during this process, please contact us and we'll be happy to help you.
Terms and Conditions of Enrolment
Payment
All enrolments must be accompanied by payment and enrolments must be undertaken prior to the course start date.
Course cancellations and refunds
We reserve the right to cancel or curtail courses. When this happens we will issue a full or partial refund as appropriate.
Student withdrawal and refunds
If you wish to withdraw from a course, written notification must be received at least 7 days prior to the beginning of the course and we will then process your refund.
Once a course has started, we will no longer issue a refund to a student who decides to withdraw.
Transfer requests
Once a course has started, we may be able to grant transfers to another course under certain circumstances e.g. the level is not appropriate.
Please note that transfers will not automatically be agreed in all circumstances, and requests should be submitted in writing to learning@aber.ac.uk (although students can phone in the case of urgent requests).
If a transfer is granted and the new course fee is the same, or lower, there will be no charge. If the new course fee is higher then the balance must be paid in full. Please also note that you will only be able to transfer a course fee once. Transfers are usually valid for 12 months.
Restrictions
You are required to declare any unspent conviction only if there are restrictions in place that may impact on your ability to undertake any element of your programme of study.
If you have any restrictions on being able to access the internet or to use tools such as email, you are required to let the university know.
You must also let the University know if there are any restrictions in place in terms of curfews, and/or, being able to enter locations/or areas (including restraining orders) that would impact your ability to be able to attend any element of your course.
