Enrolment conditions
When entering into a 6-month program the entire fee must be paid. If you choose the “6 monthly payment” option, you agree that your credit card will automatically be charged the agreed amount on the dates indicated. When enrolling you acknowledge that you're making a commitment to pay the full amount to Sydney Writers’ Centre in exchange for the privilege of participating in the program.

Cancellation/withdrawal is only permitted before the course starts
If you cannot attend the course, you must advise the Sydney Writers’ Centre in writing at least four weeks before the course starts. If this happens, you will receive a credit note to the full value of the course. You can use this credit note towards any course held at the Centre or online.

In exceptional circumstances, special consideration may be given for withdrawals or transfers within the four week period. If this occurs, you will be charged a $125 administration fee and a credit note will be issued for the outstanding amount.

Please choose this course carefully and understand that once the course has commenced, there are no transfers or refunds in the event you are unable to attend for any reason, including changes to my work commitments.

These conditions apply even if you enrol within the four week grace period.

Sydney Writers’ Centre reserves the right to cancel or terminate a course. If this happens, you will be refunded the course fee paid. The Centre is also committed to providing participants with a productive and nurturing environment. The Centre reserves the right to, at its sole discretion, limit, suspend, or terminate your right to participate in the program without refund of payment if you become disruptive or difficult to work with, or if your behaviour impairs the ability of instructors or fellow participants to participate in the program, either in class or online.
