schools around the world in major cities, historic towns,
beach locations and on university campuses
Our students come from over 150 diff erent
countries
of our students would recommend us to their
friends or familyOpen the door to another language and you open the door to another culture, another
way of thinking. Knowledge of English comes not just with the essential language skills
learned in the classroom, but also with a sense of achievement and inclusion in the
increasingly global culture of the world.
Our mission is to ensure that our students take full advantage of every moment of their
learning experience. Our courses, our exclusive K+ teaching method, and our focus on
connection-building and social learning inspire students to feel at home in another
country – to feel at home in another language and culture. We don’t just want them to
do well in class; we want them to succeed everywhere beyond.
People who speak more than one language have more opportunities and face better
career prospects than those who don’t. They have a diff erent view on the world and
an invaluable ability to communicate with others.
We want to help you open these doors. We want to take you on this global journey.
We’re extremely proud of what our students have done and what they will go on to do.
It is with great pride that I welcome you to Kaplan International.
David Jones
CEO of Kaplan International
Welcome to Kaplan. Welcome to your new world.

amounts of practice, in part depending on
where they start.

as they need on their own, making their
in-class and social activities more productive
and enjoyable.

Why learning English is great for your career
Industries are
expanding on an
international level
and we always
look for candidates
who speak
an additional
language. You
have to speak
English, wherever
you are in the
world, if you want
to work in the
business sector.
It is defi nitely
worth investing
in learning
English at a
professional level.
Marta Redding,Recruiter,Huntress Group(Offi ce Support)
Marketing
is all about
communicating;
therefore it is
vital to have
good written and
spoken English.
Also, having a
second language
shows willingness
to learn. I would
say studying
English is highly
recommended
for professional
reasons as it will
open up a lot of
doors for you.
Deborah Le, Senior Consultant, EMR (Marketing and Recruitment)
Having a second
language on your
CV dramatically
enhances your
chances of being
hired. English
language skills
really are key
for those who
want to progress
their career.
Candidates who
can speak English
are much more
likely to receive a
higher salary.

How Kaplan is helping me achieve my goals
My goal is to work in
hospitality and
speaking English is a
great advantage for
that. My weak point
in English was writing
but I have become
so much better at
it since starting
at Kaplan. Actually,
I’ve improved a lot in
all areas now; I can
almost watch a whole
movie without having
to think about it now.
Jinkwan Yang,studied at Sydney City
The Kaplan teachers
are generally more
interactive with their
students compared
to what I’ve heard
about others schools
which has helped me
learn at an advanced
rate. They make
their lessons topical
which increases my
understanding not
only of English but
English culture
as well.

FEEL WELCOMED, PRACTICE YOUR ENGLISH
Where you live while you study will make all the diff erence to the experience you have, the friends you make and your sense of comfort and security. We know it’s an important part of your decision. Kaplan is committed to fi nding the highest-quality student residences and homestays—those where you’ll feel the most at home.
A GREAT PLACE TO STAY
Quality residences & welcoming homes
I chose to stay with a local
homestay in order to better understand the Australian culture and to improve my conversational English. I stayed with a great family in a nice house.Vivian Breval Abate, studied at Brisbane
Why would I like a HOMESTAY?Living with a family gives you the chance to practice your English
every day in a relaxed atmosphere and enjoy the warmth and
comforts of a real home. You’ll have breakfast and dinner with
your hosts and fully immerse yourself in a new culture. All of our
homestays are regularly inspected to ensure they’re comfortable
and welcoming, and we choose hosts we know are well suited to
caring for international students.

BE INDEPENDENT, MAKE FRIENDS
At Kaplan we believe that accommodation is an integral part of a student’s experience and we take pride in the support we off er our students.Suzanne Yoshikawa, Accommodation Operations Manager
I really like the big kitchen at the
City Lodge. It’s pretty easy to make friends and cook together. You learn more about cultures because there are people from all over the world.Fabian Maurice Bader, studied at Auckland
Why would I like a
STUDENT RESIDENCE?Living alongside other students is the perfect
way to make friends and share ideas and
experiences (as well as recipes!) from around
the world. Most residences are self-catering
so it will be your choice to cook or eat out
at the local restaurants and cafés. You can
enjoy your independence and most locations
off er options such as residences, apartments
or hostels with a choice of single, twin or
dormitory-style rooms.

One of the best things about studying in another
country is experiencing a brand new culture. You’ll
fi nd a huge range of exciting landmarks, activities
and amazing places to visit in Australia and
New Zealand. You’ll learn and see so much more
than on any holiday. We off er every opportunity to
enjoy an exciting social life outside the classroom
by organizing activities, events and weekend trips.
Our social program will help you make the most of
your stay and allow you to make memories to last

APPLICATION PROCESS
1. APPLICATION: Please send the signed enrollment form to your Kaplan representative with the enrollment fee and, if applicable, the courier fee. Students 18 and over must sign the enrollment form to say that they have read and agree with these terms and conditions. The parents or legal guardian of students under 18 must read and also sign the enrollment form on their behalf.
Contract Formation: By signing the enrollment agreement and returning the enrollment form the student is agreeing to enter into a binding contract with Kaplan. On Kaplan’s receiving the completed and signed enrollment form and enrollment fee, if the student’s course and accommodation are available, Kaplan will produce a booking confi rmation. Once this booking confi rmation has been issued, a legally binding contract will be formed between the student and Kaplan, which is dependent on the student meeting all immigration requirements.
Your privacy is important to us. Please note that by submitting your personal data to us, you are accepting the terms described in our privacy policy, which can be found at: www.kaplaninternational.com/privacy
2. PAYMENT DEADLINE: All course fees must be paid in full (unless otherwise notifi ed) no later than 30 days before the course starts. If a booking is made less than 30 days before the course starts, the fees are immediately payable. If payment in full has not been received, you will not be allowed to start your course.
Australia: For individual courses longer than 24 weeks, 50% of tuition fees and all other fees must be paid in full no later than 30 days before the course starts. If a booking is made less than 30 days before the course starts, the fees are immediately payable. The remainder of the tuition fees is required two weeks before the start of the second study period of any individual course.
3. VISA INFORMATION: Visa requirements are subject to change, and it is the responsibility of the student to arrange all applicable travel permits or visas and to have a valid passport and leave to remain for the whole period of study. The student may be asked to make payment in full prior to the issuing of any of the visa documentation referred to below:
Australia: Visa application forms (Confi rmation of Enrollment) may not be issued by the school until full payment has been received and the enrollment agreement has been signed and returned. The enrollment agreement includes reference to the pre-departure and grievance procedures information and can be found on our website: www.kaplaninternational.com
New Zealand: In accordance with government regulations, visa support (Fees Receipt) is only issued by Kaplan when full payment has been received. Full details of visa and permit requirements, advice on rights to employment in New Zealand while studying, and reporting requirements are available through the New Zealand Immigration Service and can be viewed on their website at: www.immigration.govt.nz
4. COURIER FEES: If you enrol more than 30 days before the course start date, documentation will be sent by normal postal service, unless you request and pay for the courier service. A courier service is available on request at AUD75, NZD85.
5. TRAVEL AND MEDICAL INSURANCE: Travel and medical insurance is mandatory in most Kaplan school destinations for the duration of your stay regardless of your course length or course/visa type. Kaplan can recommend a travel and medical insurance plan. Details of what this covers are available from your Kaplan representative. You are responsible for the belongings which you bring with you to Kaplan schools or accommodation and for taking out insurance for your own possessions. You are required to show proof of medical insurance at the school when you arrive. You will not be allowed to commence a course until you have obtained satisfactory medical insurance.
Australia: The Australian government requires all students on Student Visas to join the Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) scheme, a health insurance plan for overseas students in Australia. Payment of AUD 53/month for compulsory OSHC for the duration of the student’s visa must be made before a visa can be issued.
Additional fees will be charged should you arrive in Australia earlier in order to cover insurance for the full visa period.
New Zealand: Most international students are not entitled to publicly funded health services while in New Zealand. If you receive medical treatment during your visit, you may be liable for the full costs of that treatment. Full details on entitlements to publicly funded health services are available through the Ministry of Health and can be viewed on their website at www.moh.govt.nz. In addition, The Accident Compensation Corporation provides accident insurance for all New Zealand citizens, residents and temporary visitors to New Zealand, but you may still be liable for all other medical and related costs. Further information can be viewed on the ACC website at www.acc.co.nz. Please note that Kaplan’s recommended travel and medical insurance must be booked for a minimum of 4 weeks.
6. HEALTH DECLARATION: Students must report on their enrollment form any mental or physical illness, allergy, disability or condition that may interfere with their ability to successfully complete their program, that may impact the health and well-being of any other student, host or staff member, that may require monitoring, treatment or emergency intervention of any kind during the student’s anticipated period of enrollment, or that may require special accommodations. Kaplan reserves the right to reject an applicant or terminate a student’s enrollment in the program if the student’s continued participation represents a risk to their health and safety or to the health and safety of other students or staff , or if, notwithstanding reasonable accommodations, in the opinion of Kaplan, the student’s physical or mental condition makes the student unable or unlikely to successfully complete their program. Refunds in such circumstances are at the discretion of Kaplan.
7. TUITION FEES: Tuition fees include lessons, orientation meeting, use of computer room and internet, placement and progress testing and a Kaplan certifi cate on completion of the course. Kaplan reserves the right to withhold the granting of a certifi cate attained by a student if tuition fees or any other fees remain outstanding, or other conditions are not met.
8. ADDITIONAL SERVICES: Any additional services (transfers, travel, laundry, telephone costs, excursions, medical costs, special diet, exam fees, change of accommodation and enrollment amendments) are not included in any fees unless specifi cally stated on a valid invoice.
9. TWIN ACCOMMODATION: At Kaplan’s discretion, students may be required to book single room accommodation instead of twin room accommodation.
10. UNDER 18 YEAR OLDS: Kaplan delivers adult courses (except for programs advertised as being for juniors or young learners). Therefore, students aged 16 and 17 are advised that they will be attending classes with students aged 18 and over. Under 18 year olds are required to pay a guardian fee, provide custodianship documents, live in Kaplan-approved accommodation, book Kaplan’s airport transfer in Australia and New Zealand and purchase Kaplan medical insurance. All students under 18 must provide a signed Minor Authorisation form prior to arrival.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. RULES AND REGULATIONS: Students’ arrangements with Kaplan are governed by the law of the country where the particular school attended is located.
2. ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES: All accommodation is booked from the Saturday or Sunday before the course start date until the Saturday morning aft er the course end date, unless otherwise advised. A partial week may be counted as 1 week’s accommodation. Students arriving between 22:30-6:00 may be asked to book alternative accommodation in a hotel on their fi rst night due to late/early arrival at accommodation, or be charged an extra night of accommodation.
3. LATE ARRIVALS, VACATIONS AND ABSENCES: If you begin your enrollment late or are absent during your course, no refund will be made for the time missed. Periods of absence cannot be made up with a free extension of the course.
Session Break dates are pre-built into the Academic Year and Academic Semester programs and students cannot make changes to these dates. Breaks taken at other times will be marked as periods of absence. For other courses, granting of any Session Breaks aft er the course has started will be at the discretion of individual schools, according to visa regulations, and may incur a change fee or be marked as a period of absence.
4. MEALS AND CLASSES MISSED: No refunds or substitutions will be made for meals or classes missed due to exams, excursions, internships, fi rst day orientation or other obligations that fall outside the normal schedule.
5. PUBLIC HOLIDAYS: Classes are normally not held and most school facilities are closed on public holidays. All published course start dates fall on a Monday. If the Monday is a public holiday, the start date will fall on a Tuesday. Compensation will not be made for classes not off ered on public holidays.
6. CAMPUS FACILITIES: Students attending a Kaplan school at a university or college campus location are advised that campus facilities may not be available during campus holidays. Further details are available from the Kaplan booking offi ce.
7. CHANGE FEES: A minimum of 4 weeks’ notice is required for any change. If you request a change of school location, course dates, accommodation or program type aft er your course has started, you will be charged a change fee of AUD75, NZD75 which is payable at the time the request is made. Kaplan is not obliged to fulfi ll any change request. Academic Year or Academic Semester students cannot transfer to a diff erent Kaplan school during term time. If changing to a location where fees are lower, the diff erence in fees will not be refunded. If changing to a more expensive location or program, the diff erence in fees will be charged. All changes are subject to Kaplan’s discretion and require approval of the School Principal. You will not be charged a change fee if you extend your course. It is the responsibility of the student to pay for any course or accommodation extensions. Any change of tuition resulting in a reduction in lessons will be treated as a termination of the existing booking and rebooking, and will thus be subject to the standard terms and conditions governing terminations (see ‘Termination Policy’).
8. DURATION OF LESSONS: All English lessons are 45 minutes in duration unless otherwise stated. Courses run from Monday to Friday and lessons are scheduled in the morning or the aft ernoon. Kaplan cannot guarantee a specifi c timetable.
9. SUBSTITUTION POLICY: If, aft er the placement test taken on arrival at the school, a student is found to be at a level which is not appropriate for their booked course, the school reserves the right to place the student in an appropriate level class, which may have fewer lessons and a diff erent curriculum. Students who do not have the ability to follow any course on off er may be required to terminate their studies with Kaplan. We also reserve the right to cancel courses at short notice due to insuffi cient demand.
