After not being admitted into the Investigative Studies program for fall 2016 at MacEwan in Edmonton because of lacking some the requirements for admission I was advised by a program advisor that mature entry was not an option being an international student so he suggested that I applied for the University Studies International where I could have done high school courses along with some university level courses based upon my goal program I want to do at MacEwan, this reason was the basis on which I accepted to apply for the University Studies International program but I learned recently that the name of the program changed to Academic Pathways and no longer offer the option to do university level courses. I chose to do the program with that option so I could stand a better chance to get into my program of choice at Grant MacEwan (Investigative Studies), however, unfortunately the conditions of the program changed and I was not officially informed of these conditions, I came to know this on my own. The chances are little to none to obtain a study permit to do high school courses at 28 as an international student living outside of Canada.
After careful consideration I came to the conclusion that I will need a refund of the deposit I made. I have read the refund policy on MacEwan's website but there isn't anything about a case like mine where the program condition changed after applying. I trust that I will have my request treated fairly and receive a full refund of my deposit so I can pursue a more fulfilling path towards reaching my academic goals.
I paid 10,000 Canadian dollars and there policy is that I will only get a full refund if cic deny my application for a study permit, otherwise it's 50%.
They have yet to respond to my request via email. I will like to hear the members of the forum take on this issue.
