Should I book accommodation before I speak with Dr Kimbell?

Occasionally, Dr. Kimbell suggests that the course you have selected is not right for you. She may suggest a different course, dates, or moving online, or occasionally, there may be a reason she feels that this course is not right for you, and she will issue a refund.

To avoid any inconvenience, we recommend not booking any travel or accommodation to attend the school in person until you have received confirmation that your application has been accepted. Additionally, please ensure that you have read and understood our Terms and Conditions, which can be found here: Terms & Conditions. 

Note: If you have already spoken to Vanessa and been granted a scholarship or bursary, there is no need to speak with her again.
