If we intend to cancel your enrolment before you commence your course, we will inform you of this decision in writing as soon as practicable prior to commencement of the course.
If we intend to cancel your enrolment after you commence your course, we will:
- inform you of our decision to cancel your enrolment in writing as soon as practicable, including:
