Extended Leave of Absence

Generally, the course’s validity period cannot be extended. However, if for unavoidable reasons such as sickness or business trips you cannot attend classes for an extended period of time, the course validity period can be extended up to a total of three months per year. Please make sure to inform the school office accordingly, and get a written confirmation, as soon as possible. The period taken for an authorized Leave of Absence (LOA) will be added to the end of the student's course of study. There are no refunds for an unauthorized LOA, and the period of absence during an unauthorized LOA will not be added on the end of a student's course of study. Please avoid being absent from class without informing our school office beforehand. A continuous absence exceeding three months will result in the discontinuation of a course. In such a case, the remaining lessons cannot be taken, and the remaining balance cannot be refund.

　　maintenance fees and lesson fees) will be reimbursed after deducting a commission of ￥15,000.

● If the course has already started, the paid fees will be reimbursed after deducting the lesson and
　　maintenance fees for the lessons taken, and after deducting 20% from the remaining amount, or
　　 a maximum amount of ￥50,000, whichever is lower, in addition to a commission fee of ￥15,000.
