Refund Policy

Camden College has a refund process that is fair and equitable for all.

This policy / procedure provides information on the conditions under which to apply for a refund for Program Fees.
The following procedures ensure all students are treated fairly and with integrity when applying for refunds.
All refund applications are to be submitted to the College in writing and the following procedures followed in assessing the application.
All refund information is made available to students through the enrolment process and is signed by the student prior to acceptance into the program and money accepted from the student.
All refunds are to be approved by the CEO and applications will be processed within 14 days of the application being received.
This refund policy applies to only domestic students. International students need to refer to the Refund Policy (International Students) displayed on the website.
A 10-business day cooling-off period applies to students who have been approached by our team directly. You can cancel during this time without penalty. For more information on what is applicable under QLD legislation and Australian Consumer Law, please visit: https://www.qld.gov.au/law/your-rights/consumer-rights-complaints-and-scams/buying-products-and-services/training-courses
A non-refundable application fee of $200 will apply to all domestic student refund requests. Please refer to the Student Handbook for more information.
