FHM Refund Policy
Before starting a study program at FHM, every international participant of any study program is requested to pay a specific amount of the overall tuition fee. A respective invoice is submitted accordingly.
Every international participant may apply for the refund of (parts of) the tuition fee in the following cases:
- The FHM refunds 100% of the fees charged if the visa of the participant has been rejected and therefore entry is not possible. An administration fee of 250 € will be charged.
- The FHM refunds 70% of the fees charged if the applicant does not attend the interview at the embassy.
- The FHM refunds 50% of the fees charged if the visa has been issued and the applicant cancels his participation in the program until four weeks before the start of the program.
- The FHM refunds 70% of the fees charged if the visa has been issued and the applicant cancels his participation in the program on ground of ill health. In this case a medical certificate is needed.
- The FHM does not refund, if the FHM does not have a formal notice of termination of the study program 14 days before the start of the program.
- Students must transfer the complete first instalment to be eligible for final registration (matriculation) and to gain access to lectures, course materials, and the study platform at FHM University. If a student does not transfer the full first instalment within four weeks of receiving the visa, FHM University will not refund the partial payment.
- The international participant ensures the bank details he/she provides are correct. FHM is not responsible for payments made to incorrect accounts provided by international participants.
- Additional agreements are not accepted. Legal venue is Bielefeld. This policy is valid from January 1st, 2025.
