If you have decided to learn at the Alpha Aktiv, we would like to ask you to register on a written form (please use our online application form, see the link). The participation conditions will be fully recognised and accepted by both parties if the course contract has been signed. In rare and special situations we accept telephone course registrations.

2. Payment

The registration fee (25€) is paid only once and should be paid after you have registered for a desired course. The remainder of the course payment should be transferred to our bank account or paid by cash in our office after you have been accepted as our school participant.

We can book a course or a room for you, only if the course and accommodation fees have been paid in full. All the fees should be paid at least 7 days before the start of the course.

Should you book a room with our institute, the accommodation fees should be fully paid at least 8 weeks before your arrival (especially in the summer time). Please pay attention to the fact that we have to book the accommodation in good time.

After the course and accommodation fees have been transferred to our bank account and we have received them, you will get a written confirmation of your payment with all the other necessary information relating to your arrival, course and booked accommodation. The course participant is also charged with all the bank fees for the transfer.

The course fees for an unattended course will not be refunded.

4. Contract Withdrawal/ Termination

4.1 Withdrawal from a course takes effect only after a written withdrawal form has been handed in. Here the date of the withdrawal letter is crucial und determines the validity of the withdrawal. You can withdraw from a course at least 6 weeks before it starts. In such a case all the course fees will be refunded. Should you not appear at school or hand in your course termination after the course has already started, all the course fees are due to be paid. The withdrawal from a course will be accepted only if it is caused by serious and personal events like death or illness in a family. In exceptional cases Alpha Aktiv can establish a cancellation fee according to mutual agreement, issue a course coupon or suggest a different timing for the course. The course fees that have already been paid will be kept and can be calculated for the course attended later, in a different term.

4.2 Should the course participant’s visa application be rejected, the course fees will be refunded except for 300€ which is a processing fee. The refusal letter should be presented to us.

4.3 The Institute Alpha-Aktiv may cancel a course if the minimum number of participants (4 people) is not reached. In this instance previously paid tuition will be reimbursed. The other options could be: the course is held with a decreased number of lesson hours, or a course is booked at a different time.

4.4 Cancelled classes (holidays or absence of the teacher) will be made up for.

4.5 There will be no substitutions (no extra organised lesson hours) for missed classes.

4.6 If the participant is not able to attend a private class; s/he should inform the institute at least 24 hours before the start of the course.

5. Reimbursement of the accommodation fees

5.1 The accommodation fees will be completely reimbursed if you cancel your rservation at least 6 weeks before your arrival. The cancellation has to be in writing. In exceptional cases ( visa refusal, timely well-planned rebooking) the accommodation fees can also be refunded.

5.2 The rooms booked for 1 year can/should be terminated within a period of 3 month-notice.

5.3 The students, who applied for a visa, should inform the institute about the visa processing (acceptance/refusal) at least 6 weeks before the starting date of the booked course, otherwise the accommodation fee for one month is to be calculated.

Rebooking

Up to 4 weeks you are allowed to rebook either your room or course. Should the deadline be exceeded, additonal costs will be calculated.

Insurance

Each of the participants is requested to take out health insurance of his/her own. On request we can also obtain the insurance contract for you in Germany. It covers health and indemnity insurance.

Liability

The Alpha-Aktiv institute commits itself to rendering the booked and guaranteed services in their entirety. Should that not be the case for the reasons unrelated to the Alpha Aktiv institute, the school bears no responsibility.

The course participant is responsible for all damages done by himself/herself. Should any damage be done to any other participant, the Alpha Aktiv institute can take over the situation and act as an intermediary between the two parties. The offender is responsible for his actions against the third person.

The participation in the course is at one’s own risk. Hence we recommend health insurance.

After the Accommodation, you have another option,  that of TRANSFER. This option allows you to book a transport that will pick you up at the airport and will take you to your residence or host family.

The start dates of intensive and standard language courses are generally flexible. If you have some basic knowledge of the language, you will be able to start any Monday of the year at almost any school. If you are a total beginner, courses usually start once or twice a month.
You should be aware that language schools have more students in July and August than during any other time of year, which means that course fees, housing prices and the overall cost of living are often more expensive during this time. If you would like to book a course in July or August, you should do so very early: schools have limited spots and might be booked well in advance for the high season. Your chances to get your preferred housing type are also greater if you book your course early. Housing options near the school are especially difficult to secure in the summer and tend to fill up quickly.
Language courses during the low season (September to June) are not only less expensive, but also have smaller classes. If you are able to wait to take your courses during this time you will pay less for your courses, and  you may even receive better housing, since demand is much lower. Please, review this information within the language course details on the language school page.
 You can find the availability status underneath each price on the school / host page. Nevertheless, if you submit a reservation request and your place is not available, the deposit paid will be 100% refunded.
