If your course does not resume teaching on campus, you may cancel your Residential Agreement up to 14 days prior to the agreement start date.

Your course is now only being offered online

If your course has moved to online-only teaching, you may cancel your Residential Agreement up to 14 days prior to the agreement start date. This policy does not apply if you have the option to take your course on campus but elect to take it online only.

You do not receive a Visa to study in Australia

If you are an International Student and you do not get your Visa, you may cancel your Resident Agreement within 5 days of receiving notification from the Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP).

What do you need to do?

You will need to provide CLV in writing, the supporting official evidence demonstrating you meet the criteria within the timeframes outlined above. You will need to provide your supporting evidence to us including your full name, application number, email and phone number in your email.

Official supporting evidence is:

• Declined visa notification from the Department of Immigration and Border Protection (DIBP)
• Official Government communication from either your Government or the Australian Government that you are unable to travel
• Official notice from the University that your course will not be taught on campus
• Official notice from the University that the University campus is closed
• Notice from UAC / VTAC / QTAC / TISC or the University that your application has not succeeded
• Notice from UAC / VTAC / QTAC / TISC or the University that you have been accepted into an alternative University

What happens when I cancel?

If you have not yet moved in, you will be refunded your security deposit and any other upfront fees. If your contract has already started, you are liable for rent up to the date of notification / moving out of the village and your security deposit will be returned to you provided you have met the move-out conditions. However, application, registration and cleaning fees (where applicable) are non-refundable.

*Refunds can take up to 30 days to be processed. Once processed, it may take another 14 days for the funds to land in your bank account. Please check with your local bank on their transfer policies and this can vary.

Where will the Free Cancellation Policy not apply?

The policy will not apply where you have accepted a University Offer but you elect to defer or withdraw from your studies, or if you change your mind about where you would like to stay.

Need more help?

If you have an alternative form of official supporting evidence, your circumstances are different from any of the above scenarios or you are not sure if this policy applies to you, please contact your friendly Customer Contact Village team to discuss your individual circumstances and we will endeavour to support you as best we can.
