Payments
Group Programs (credit)
A non-refundable deposit of $300 is required upon acceptance to confirm enrollment in Academic Programs and the Internship program. Once CEDEI has received this deposit, the remaining fees will be billed by our USA office and must be paid prior to the start of the program. CEDEI reserves the right to cancel enrolment if it does not receive the aforementioned deposit in a timely fashion or if the student fails to pay the program fees in full by the due date indicated on the invoice.
Individual Programs (non-credit)
A non-refundable deposit of $100 is required for both the Full Immersion Spanish Program (FISP) and the Spanish Immersion Volunteer Program (SIVP). This deposit will reserve your host family and instructors for your requested dates of study, and facilitate contact with volunteer organizations in Cuenca where you will participate in SIVP.
