A medical certificate is required for reimbursement. The cancellation insurance and travel costs are not reimbursed.

Students are not insured by the school against illness, accident, theft, etc. Participants are recommended to take out an insurance policy (compulsory for Summer School courses). You can take out the economical travel insurance package (health, accident, baggage and travel liability insurance) for your stay at ActiLingua. Prices and covered amounts on request.

The invitation letter will be sent by email to the embassy and by regular mail or by express mail (DHL) to you. In case the application is rejected and you cancel up to 4 working days prior to course start we will reimburse the paid fee excl. an administration fee of EUR 198.- and the DHL-Express fee only to the bank account or credit card the payment came from. A refund will only be granted upon receipt of written proof of the embassy’s denial, which you are in charge of forwarding us. No refund is possible after the start of the course.

We assume no liability for accidents or illness incurred by the participant during the course. Claims of any kind for which the participant is responsible are to be settled by the participant directly with the party suffering damage.
