Please read carefully: This Refund Policy explains our position on refunds for all payments made to School of Ministries. By submitting an application or making any payment, you acknowledge and agree to this policy.
1. Our Refund Policy
At School of Ministries, we are committed to providing quality theological education. However, due to the nature of our programs and the administrative costs involved, we do not offer refunds for any payments made, including but not limited to:
- Application form fees
- Admission fees
- Tuition fees
- Program registration fees
- Certificate or diploma issuance fees
- Any other fees paid to the institution
Important: Once a payment is made, it is considered final and non-refundable. This applies regardless of whether you complete the program, attend classes, change your mind about studying, are unable to continue due to personal reasons, are not approved for admission, or decide to withdraw at any point.
2. Application & Admission Fees
The application and admission fee (currently GH₵ 100) is charged to cover the cost of processing your application. This fee is:
- Non-refundable under all circumstances
- Non-transferable to another person or program
- Non-creditable toward future tuition or fees
This applies even if your application is rejected, you choose not to proceed, or you do not meet the admission requirements.
3. Tuition Fees
All tuition fees paid to School of Ministries are non-refundable. Once a student is enrolled and has paid tuition:
- No refund will be issued for any reason
- No partial refunds will be given for incomplete programs
- No refunds will be given for courses not attended or completed
- No refunds will be given if a student is suspended or expelled for misconduct
4. Withdrawal & Cancellation
If you choose to withdraw from a program at any time:
- No refund of any fees paid will be issued
- You remain responsible for any outstanding balance
- Your access to course materials may be revoked
- Your student account will be marked as "withdrawn"
The same applies if the institution cancels a program — fees may be credited to another program at our discretion, but no cash refund will be issued.
5. Suspension & Expulsion
If a student is suspended or expelled for violating our Terms of Service or Academic Integrity Policy:
- No refund of any fees paid will be issued
- Any outstanding fees remain payable
- Access to all course materials will be immediately revoked
6. Currency & Exchange Rates
All payments are made in Ghana Cedis (GH₵). We are not responsible for:
- Currency exchange rate fluctuations
- Bank charges or transfer fees
- Third-party payment processing fees
- Losses due to currency conversion
7. Payment Processing Errors
In the unlikely event of a duplicate payment or technical error:
- Contact us immediately at admission@schoolofministries.com
- Provide your transaction reference number
- We will investigate within 7–14 business days
- If a genuine error is confirmed, we may issue a credit or correction at our sole discretion
This does not constitute a general refund policy — it applies only to verified technical errors.
8. Chargebacks & Disputes
Initiating a chargeback or payment dispute without first contacting us will result in:
Immediate suspension of your account · Permanent ban from all School of Ministries programs · Legal action to recover the disputed amount.
We encourage you to contact us first to resolve any concerns.
