Payment Policies

When the applicant is approved for admission, a $500 nonrefundable deposit is due one month after the application deadline. The balance of tuition and fees are due one month prior to the start of the program. * Students should make sure that the entire amount due is paid to JAIMS.

Students are also responsible for any processing fees that may be charged while remitting the tuition and fees.

JAIMS reserves the right to deny enrollment, transcripts, grade reports and graduation if a student does not meet his/her financial obligation to JAIMS.

*Payment by cash, check, money order or wire transfer is accepted. A check that is returned due to insufficient funds will result in a $25 assessment.

Refund/Return Policy

Tuition and Fees
If a student decides to withdraw from EWKLP before the start of the term, JAIMS will refund any monies received less the $500 nonrefundable deposit.

A student who wishes to withdraw completely from JAIMS after the start of the term may receive a refund, subject to the approval of the Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. The amount of the refund will be determined by the EVP/COO and may be based upon the number of instruction days prior to the approval date of withdrawal from JAIMS. No refund will be given after the third week of instruction.

The tuition and fees include the textbooks and classroom materials only for the courses for which the student has registered. If a student drops an elective course, he or she must either return the textbook(s) in good condition or remit the equivalent purchase price to JAIMS.
