A student who withdraws voluntarily after the notification by the AIFS Foundation office of placement is received and prior to departure from the U.S. forfeits the application fee and full program acceptance fee. Students who voluntarily withdraw from the program after departure will surrender all monies paid to the AIFS Foundation. No refund will be issued, regardless of circumstances for early return.

Notes

Applications will not be processed until the application fee is received. If the AIFS Foundation is forced to cancel a program before your departure, all monies paid will be refunded.
