Cancellation:

If for any reason you decide to cancel your ISU application, you must inform the International Summer University in writing immediately. Cancellation takes effect starting from the date when the ISU receives this notification.

Cancellation prior to July 1st of the program year: full refund of the balance of fees paid, minus € 150 non-refundable service fee.

Cancellation after July 1st of the program year: no fees can be refunded.

Cancellation due to visa denial:

In case of visa denial and the subsequent inability to attend the program, the program fee (with bank fees and non-refundable service fee to be deducted) will be refunded. This, however, does not apply if the visa denial is caused by personal negligence (e.g. admitting inauthentic or incomplete documents). The official visa denial (a written letter by the German embassy) must be sent as proof. In case of visa denial, cancellation is eligible up to a week before the program starts
