AIFS Partnership Programs: Faculty-Led Study Abroad Programs

Refund Policy

All notification of withdrawal must be made in writing via email to customizedfacultyled@aifs.com, or by fax or certified mail to: Customized, Faculty-Led Programs, AIFS Study Abroad, 1 High Ridge Park, Stamford, CT 06905. The fax number is 203.399.5597. Postmark date or date of email or fax transmission is considered date of withdrawal. All withdrawal statements must be signed by the applicant, or they will not be processed.

If a student withdraws on or before Friday, June 23, 2023, a full refund will be made less $150, plus any non-refundable deposits paid either by the student or by AIFS on the student’s behalf.

If a student withdraws after Friday, June 23, 2023, but on or before Friday, July 21, 2023, the $450 deposit fee is forfeited, along with any non-refundable deposits paid either by the student or by AIFS on the student’s behalf.

Students withdrawing for any reason after Friday, July 21, 2023, receive no refund of fees and full payment is due. Flights cannot be arranged for students applying after Friday, June 23, 2023.

Once the program has started, students withdrawing receive no refund under any circumstances. This refund policy is necessary because the booking of facilities in Barcelona requires substantial non-refundable payments and commitments by AIFS in advance.
