Check Policy
When you provide a check as payment to Concordia College or Concordia Language Villages, you authorize Concordia College either to use the information from your check to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account or to process the payment as a check transaction. When information from your check is used by Concordia College to make an electronic fund transfer, funds may be withdrawn from your account as soon as the same day you make your payment, and you will not receive your check back from your financial institution. A $25 service fee or the maximum amount allowed by law will be added to all returned checks. Returned check fees may be collected electronically via ACH.
Pricing
Sessions that attend during one of our summer International Day celebrations are priced $40 more than sessions that do not attend International Day. Learn more about International Day.
Tuition
After you have made a deposit and registered, billing statements for the remaining balance will be sent monthly via e-mail or regular mail beginning in January. Separate charges will appear for registration and transportation. If you have made a payment or received a scholarship, it sometimes takes a few weeks to post to your account. All summer sessions must be paid in full by June 1. If you would like to set up an automatic payment plan click here.
If we receive your registration information and your first session choice is full, we will automatically enroll you in your second session choice. If both are filled, we will place you on the waiting list for both sessions and send you an e-mail to notify you. If you would like to register for another session/language, call us and we can help you find something that will suit your interests, schedule, and needs. We strongly urge you to explore alternate dates, sites or even languages rather than miss out!
- If a cancellation is received by April 30 a 100% refund will be given minus the $300 non-refundable deposit.
- If a cancellation is received May 1-31 a 50% refund will be given of the total tuition minus the non-refundable deposit.
