Insurance – SwitzerlandHealth and accident insurance is mandatory in Switzerland; therefore, non-Swiss resident students are required to take the health and accident insurance provided by Glion that covers them while on campus and on internship. However, if students have a private, valid insurance coverage equivalent to the Swiss health insurance coverage scheme, they are required to follow the procedure to become exempted by the Swiss authorities (information about exemption and the validation of foreign insurance plans is available from the Admissions Department).
Students under a European health insurance scheme who wish to use this coverage whilst studying at Glion are required to provide a valid copy of their personal health insurance card to have the health insurance fee deducted from their invoice for the semester. If students fail to complete this procedure prior to their registration on campus, they will automatically be registered for the insurance provided by Glion at the most competitive rate, which may vary from one semester to another.
Students who have been granted the exemption by Swiss authorities are responsible for verifying the validity of their private health and accident insurance coverage in Switzerland and on internship in Switzerland or abroad; Glion will not cover any health or accident-related expenses.
Personal and private insurance, to cover issues such as damage or theft of personal property, is not mandatory but is strongly recommended and is the student’s responsibility. Glion cannot be held responsible for the theft of personal belongings, student damage or third-party insurance. The health insurance fee invoice for the internship semester(s) will be sent with the invoice for the previous on-campus semester.
Insurance – LondonWhile studying in the United Kingdom (UK), all students, regardless of nationality, are entitled to accident and emergency care free of charge. For all other health matters, eligibility rules apply:• Depending on the length of stay in the UK,
nationals of those countries with a bilateral health agreement with the UK are entitled to access treatment – some treatments are excluded and costs may apply.
• Nationals of those countries without a bilateral health agreement with the UK are entitled to access treatment but will be charged.
Internships: If completing an internship outside of the UK, students are responsible for and strongly advised to have suitable health and accident insurance for the duration of their internship.
InternshipsAll students are requested to complete their internship(s) in establishments approved by Glion. The main objective is to prepare students for their professional careers by developing their managerial, entrepreneurial and personal skills to the fullest through interesting and challenging internships. Glion has established excellent relationships within the hospitality and tourism industries, and a wide choice of training opportunities is offered to students in large, medium or small companies in Switzerland and/or abroad. However, some countries can be restricted by government visa, work permit, policies and/or language requirements. Although internships are generally paid by the employer, the remuneration received cannot be expected to finance studies at Glion.
Visa application procedure – LondonFor your f i rst semester in the United Kingdom (Semester 0), you may come under the Standard Visitor Visa.
From semester 3 onwards:• Should you wish to return to the United
Kingdom for more than one semester, you must apply for a Student Visa.
• Should you wish to return to the United Kingdom for only one semester, you will be able to apply for a second Standard Visitor Visa.
Laptop policyStudents will need to have individual access to our Intranet website, which hosts student information including support, teaching documents and other learning resources. Students will also need to use the Internet for their project research to access online library resources or emails. Students must bring their own laptop that meets Glion’s requirements. Laptop specifications will be sent directly to the student upon confirmation of their enrollment and are also published on our website under www.glion.edu/pre-arrival-information
Visa application procedure for accepted candidates – SwitzerlandAccepted candidates wi l l receive an acceptance letter from the Admissions Department detailing the visa application procedure.
Students are responsible to complete the visa application procedure and are strongly advised to apply immediately as it takes at least two months to obtain a visa. If the student is a national of an EU/EEA country or Switzerland, a visa is not required to study in Switzerland.
For those who need an entry visa, it is imperative to request a Type D Study visa (not a tourist visa). Candidates must make a personal request at the Swiss Embassy/Consulate in their country of residence and present the school’s attestation.
Once the visa is approved (after 8 to 12 weeks), the embassy/consulate will notify the candidate who then must collect the original visa from the embassy/consulate and other supporting documents listed on the website of the local Swiss consulate.
Pre-paymentNew students wi l l receive their acceptance documents after reception of the GBP 4,000 pre-payment. This pre-payment confirms the place in the program and is non-refundable, except in extreme circumstances. The pre-payment is deducted from the student’s first invoice.
Please note: If the student postpones his or her studies after the pre-payment has been made, the balance will be carried forward to the next two intakes (one year) only. If a student postpones to the next intake but subsequently cancels, the pre-payment will be non-refundable.
As a private institute, Glion provides a limited number of scholarships for new and returning students. Scholarships are competitive and linked to Glion’s admissions strategy, which aims to assist motivated young people to study at our institution. Each scholarship has specific criteria, and eligibility for a scholarship is examined on a case-by-case basis for those students who have submitted a complete application and is granted at Glion’s sole discretion. Scholarships apply on tuition only, are not cumulative and do not apply on on-campus or online retake fees. The Scholarship Policy is reviewed each year and can be changed at any time and without prior notice.
ScholarshipsPaymentPayments must be made in full in Swiss Francs or in GBP (depending on the study location) no later than 15th November (for the Spring intake) or 15th May (for the Fall intake), unless a payment plan contract has been approved. For returning students, this payment confirms their place in the program and room allocation. Students will not be permitted to begin the semester unti l the due amount has been received. Academic documentation (transcript of grades, degrees, attestations, etc.) are only delivered/awarded after all due fees and charges have been paid in full. Glion reserves the right to suspend from his or her studies, at any time, a student with pending due amounts or non-respected payment plan installments.
Sponsorship is a f inancial commitment by a sponsor (parent, legal guardian or any other person) where the sponsor undertakes to pay any fees and other charges on behalf of the student. Notwithstanding any sponsorship commitment as part of the application process, the students remains l iable for any outstanding debt. Any reference in these Terms and Condit ions to liability of students shall also infer liability on the sponsor of the student as the case may be and such liability is joint and several.
SponsorshipExcept as described hereinafter, all fees outlined and paid for are non-refundable. Subject to pre-payment section, if a new student cancels before the official arrival date on campus, only the pre-payment of GBP 4,000 will be retained. If a student is dismissed or withdraws from the program during a semester (after the official check-in day), all fees are non-refundable.
If a returning student withdraws from the program after the payment deadline and/or does not attend check-in, then a cancellation fee of CHF 500/GBP 300 will apply.
If the student has to take a break from their studies due to mitigating circumstances approved by the Glion Students Accounting committee, any unused fees for tuition, accommodation and the remaining credit of the F&B prepaid card will be credited if the student returns to Glion within two years. The unused tuition and accommodation fees are proportional to the number of weeks remaining in the semester that have been invoiced for. In any case, if the due fees for the semester have not been settled in full, the outstanding amount will be (or become in case of payment plan) immediately due and Glion will ask for instant payment.
At the end of the studies (or i f the student definitively withdraws), the sponsor can claim for the refund of the positive balance for a maximum of two years after the last official check-out day of their last on campus semester.
