There is a cooling off period of 3 calendar days from the day you enrolled (Cooling Off Period). If you cancel within the Cooling Off Period then you will receive a full refund of the Course Fee.

Money Back Guarantee

Social Media College provide high quality, practical courses and we’re very confident in their ability to improve your career and/or business’ performance. Social Media College invest a huge amount into developing the courses in partnership with leading industry experts. However, if you do not invest the time and energy and take the necessary action, you will not see the results, so we expect our students to work hard and persevere through challenges they encounter.

However, if you’re not completely satisfied with your Course, Social Media College offer a Money Back Guarantee. In order to be eligible for the Money Back Guarantee you’ll need to:
  • commence the Course;
  • notify Social Media College in writing within 60 days of Course Commencement that you would like a refund;
  • provide proof that you have completed the Course, including reading/watching all content, attending live sessions, and completing all activities and assessments (specific to each Course);
  • complete a detailed survey about what aspects of the Course you were not satisfied with and what we could do to improve our course; and
  • complete a 15-minute, one-on-one consultation with one of our mentors.
Once you are deemed eligible, all refunds are within Social Media College’s sole discretion as to whether to grant or deny the refund request.

Social Media College will not provide a refund more than 60 days following the date of Enrolment. After day 60, all payments are non-refundable and you are responsible for full payment of the fees for the program regardless of whether you complete the Course.

Extenuating Circumstances

We understand that sometimes unexpected events occur that prevent our students from completing the remainder of the course, such as a family or medical emergency.

Social Media College  will consider requests for course transfers/refunds in extenuating circumstances on a case-by-case basis. They  may request sufficient evidentiary proof to verify your request.

In its sole discretion, Social Media College may decide the appropriate resolution, such as:
  • a partial or full refund of the Course Fees;
  • transfer to another Course; and/or
  • transfer to a future intake of the same Course.
