Refund & Cancellation Policy

Courses & Packages

Attendance Courses, Workshops & Conferences

For cancellations more than 4 weeks prior to course commencement, 100% of the course price will be refunded. For cancellations 2–4 weeks prior to course commencement, 50% of the course will be refunded. There are no refunds for cancellations less than 2 weeks prior to course commencement. No refunds will be made for failure-to-attend at attendance courses.

PESCI Interview

Cancellation

If a candidate wishes to withdraw from the process after having paid the full amount, a request must be received in writing as soon as possible.

Should a candidate wish to withdraw their application prior to scheduling their PESCI, $2,000 will be refunded to the candidate.

If the candidate has scheduled an interview and they wish to cancel with more than 28 days notice, $1,000 of the application fee will be refunded. If the request is received less than 28 days prior to the interview date, the candidate will forfeit the application fee. A full refund will only be given if IME is unable to facilitate the interview. IME reserves the right to reschedule PESCI interviews if there is reasonable notice given to the candidate. Candidates will not be eligible for a full refund in this instance.

Rescheduling

An administration fee of $500 will apply for any further administration efforts that extend the usual PESCI process. This may include a request to change an already submitted PESCI application, or to reschedule the date & time of PESCI. Candidates are advised that they may only reschedule their PESCI once, and must provide notice in writing no less than 28 days prior to the interview. After this time, the cancellation policy will apply.

Online Courses & Programs

No refunds will be made once online modules have been made available and accessed by the student.

Education Training Programs & Official Examinations

No refunds are available for exclusive, competitive selection programs such as the GAMSAT Premier Program, and any other application based program. 

Course Cancellation

In the unlikely event that insufficient registrations are received to make a course or program viable, or the date or location of a course is changed, the Institute of Medical Education takes no responsibility for additional individual costs incurred as a result.

Please note that registrations are not confirmed until payment has been processed, which is considered as acceptance of the above terms and conditions.

• We may sometimes change our terms and conditions. This includes changing course inclusions, services, facilities and dates.
• If we reasonably consider that any change to the terms and conditions is likely to benefit you or be of no, or immaterial, detriment to you, we can make the change immediately and do not need to notify you.
