Career Counselling fees are non-refundable once the service has been purchased, except where SAS expressly agrees otherwise or where required by applicable law.
Pricing and any applicable refund or cancellation terms for career assessments will be shown or communicated through the relevant purchase channel at the time of purchase. Where an assessment is purchased through an authorised agent or other sales channel, the price and applicable commercial terms presented through that channel may apply.
Where payment is made through a third party or service partner, additional terms or payment conditions of that party may apply. SAS does not store complete card or banking information.

A refundable deposit may be required to begin certain Study Abroad services. Depending on the service arrangement, the deposit may be collected by Study Abroad Simplified or through an authorised service partner.
Where a refundable deposit is eligible for return, the refund will be processed after the applicable eligibility requirements and supporting information have been verified. Processing time may vary depending on the payment method, banking channel, service partner, institution, or other parties involved.
A refundable Study Abroad deposit may become ineligible for refund in circumstances such as early withdrawal, submission of false or fraudulent documents, or failure to satisfy applicable requirements.
Where a service partner holds the deposit, refund processing is subject to that partner’s applicable terms and procedures.
