Year Three

There are two ways to pay for Year Three, depending on where you do your clinical training.

1. At a Phoenix Academy approved clinic. You pay the annual tuition fee to us as before, in full or by instalments. We pay the clinics periodically, based on the days on the log sheets signed by your supervisors. If you don’t attend a booked date without telling the clinic 24 hours in advance, you will still be charged.

What the fees include

• The registration fee must be paid on enrolment. It secures your place and is separate from the course fee. We offer a 14-day no-obligation refund if you decide not to continue, provided you book and cancel at least 14 days before the course begins.
• Course fees cover a set of herbal samples (125 herbs), electronic lecture notes and materials, lectures, tutorial support, case-study and summary sessions, access to audio and video recordings of lectures, and examinations.
• Additional costs, such as books, exam resits, assignment resubmissions and private tuition, are not included and must be paid separately.

We aim to deliver every scheduled session to the highest standard. If a lecture is cancelled for unforeseen reasons, such as lecturer illness, we will tell you promptly and reschedule it at no extra cost.

Withdrawals, deferments and late payments

• Cancellation: you are entitled to a full refund if you cancel within 14 calendar days of payment, provided this is at least 14 days before the course begins. A 10% administration charge is deducted from the full-year course fee if you cancel more than 14 days after payment, or within 14 days of the course starting.
• Withdrawal: if you wish to withdraw during an academic year, tell Phoenix Academy in writing. A withdrawal fee of £368 applies. If you have paid the full course fee in advance, you will be refunded for the part of the course not yet delivered, minus the withdrawal fee. There is no withdrawal fee if you withdraw at the end of an academic year.
• Deferment: send a written request to Phoenix Academy. There is no deferment fee, but the course must be completed within six years of your start date.
• Late payments: a £20 admin fee applies for each reminder email about a missed payment. Students more than four weeks behind with a payment will lose access to course materials.
