​

You are assured of quality education and a high standard of service when you study at Universal English.

The ESOS framework protects your rights, including your right to:

​

  • Sign a written agreement with your provider before or as you pay fees, which sets out the services provided, fees payable and information about refunds of course money. You should keep a copy of your written agreement.

  • Get the education for which you have paid. The ESOS framework includes consumer protection that will allow you to receive a refund or to be placed in another course if your provider is unable to teach your course.

The ESOS framework protects your right to know:

​

  • How to use your provider’s student support services.

  • Who the contact officer or officers are for overseas students.

  • If you can apply for course credit; and when your enrolment can be deferred, suspended or canceled.
