ISSUE OF VISAS

  • We support students who need a VISA as much as we can by giving them relative advice
  • If requested, we may provide students with a letter of acceptance (provided that they have paid the total of fees before we send it)
  • This letter of acceptance can only be issued for our 3-months morning course
  • If students are refused the issue of VISA and wish to have a refund of the fees they should send us the respective refusal letter of the Greek Consulate. In such case they will be entitled for a 90% refund.
  • They will be also charged with the applicable bank transfer cost.
