On the one hand, the Escuela Superior de Negocios y Tecnologías S.L. (hereinafter the School or ESDEN) with CIF B-01287440 and tax domicile at Avenida Iparraguirre, number 104, postal code 48940 Leioa (Vizcaya), and on the other hand, the STUDENT and the PAYER, hereinafter any economic reference made to the STUDENT will also be understood to be made to the PAYER, agree to formalize the present teaching contract in accordance with the clauses described below:

The School is a private center of postgraduate studies that provides training in face-to-face, blended or blended learning mode. The training modality of the contracted program is described both in the information you receive at the time of enrollment, as well as in the study guide.

Economic conditions:

1. In cases of payment in installments, regardless of the payment method adopted, the School shall receive the fees corresponding to the net services rendered, i.e., the student shall be responsible for the costs associated with bank transfers, payments by virtual POS or any other means.
2. In the case of instalments, the fees must be paid on the first day of each month and will be made in monthly payments during the course, the fees will be paid with an interest of 10% on the final price. If the student is more than 10 days late in the payment of the established amounts, ESDEN’s fees will be increased by an amount equal to the legal interest rate plus 5 points, in addition to the previously agreed upon amount.
3. Failure to pay two overdue monthly installments according to the contracted payment plan will result in the expulsion of the student from the School. The expulsion will be communicated in writing, and the student will have 7 days to present allegations, if not presented the expulsion will take effect after this period. In case of presenting them the School will decide on the basis of the same in 7 days.

In this case the School may claim the advance payment of the installments. In the event that the payment has been regulated by means of exchange instruments, the School may choose between prepaying the installments and claiming the total amount or waiting for the expiration of such instruments. The student must comply with all payment commitments and must settle all payments in full, without having any right to a refund or interruption of such payments due to withdrawal from the academic program. Continued non-payment of actual, due and payable fees may entitle the School, upon prior notice, to include the student in the Register of Delinquent Accounts.

4. In the event that the student is a repeat offender in the delay of payment of fees, with more than 2 delays during the academic year, the School may expel the student immediately.

In case of request for cancellation of enrollment: Places (and scholarships, if applicable) in the master’s programs are limited. In addition, as indicated in the first section of the conditions of delivery, there is a minimum number of students for each master’s group. Therefore, if the student requests to withdraw from the academic program, he/she must comply with the following conditions: The reservation of a place is a non-refundable amount. If the cancellation occurs before 90 days before the beginning of the master: the student must pay 50% of the amount of the master (this being understood as the final price for the student minus the reservation fee paid). If the cancellation occurs between 90 days and 30 days before the start of the master, the student must pay 70% of the amount of the master (this being the final price for the student minus the reservation of the place paid). If the cancellation occurs in a period of less than 30 days before the master, or once the master has started, the student must pay 100% of the amount of the master. The reference date is understood to be the date of commencement of the master’s degree at the time of first enrollment, and does not affect possible renewals.

In case of renewal of the call, students who present a letter of visa denial, or any other official supporting documentation, will proceed to the renewal of the call, upon payment of €350 of the administrative fee for the change of call, as long as such documentation is presented at least 15 days prior to the official date (which will be definitively set three months in advance) of the beginning of the academic program. Only in the above cases will the School offer the possibility of changing to another modality if offered, proceeding to the corresponding settlement and provided that the student requests and signs the new contract corresponding to the new modality.

For reasons related to illegal residence, and the center having delivered the documents for the granting of the study visa, the interested party is informed that the call will not be renewed, nor will the change of modality be made to all those students who do not officially justify the impossibility of attending the call to which they have enrolled at least 15 days before the official date, without proceeding to the refund of the registration fee.

In cases where, due to force majeure, the student requests a change of session, he/she will have to pay the corresponding amount of the master’s degree with the contents and prices of the subsequent session, after deducting the amounts already paid previously. Once this change of session has been made, the student will not have the option to change the modality nor will the amount paid be refunded in the case of cancellation of the academic program. Classes will be held at the centers designated by the School for this purpose in each case.

Conditions of delivery: The School reserves the following rights:

1. To the cancellation of the academic program in case the number of students enrolled is less than 10. In this case, the School will notify the enrolled students 30 days in advance and will proceed to refund the money paid, without any right to compensation or indemnification.
2. Substitution of teaching staff in those cases in which the academic management deems it necessary, in order to maintain our quality standards.
3. The academic direction of the School reserves the right to design and modify the indicative academic program of the brochure, to select the teaching staff and the choice of teaching aids; to declare the student “Ineligible” for reasons of academic performance to follow the regular course of the academic program.
4. The academic management reserves the right to modify the indicative calendar previously delivered as well as the first day of class if, for reasons of teachers’ schedules or for didactic reasons, it deems it convenient.

Internship Department Services: ESDEN students have direct access to the services offered by our Internship Department. ESDEN guarantees students under 30 years of age the management of a minimum period of 3 months of internships, related to the object of the training program, in companies. The beginning of the internship can be from the beginning of the academic program until the end of it, as long as it is developed in Spain in blended mode, excluding programs in Global mode, and programs whose classes are taught in Colombia and Mexico. In the case of internships for FT MBAs with Specializations, these will begin from the second month after the end of the academic program, and within the following four months after that two-month period. As a matter of policy, internships are paid, although the amount will be defined by the company in each offer. The refusal of an internship offered by the Internship Department of the School will imply the total renunciation of this activity. The student must respect and be subject to the internship management protocol established by the department. The maximum duration of the internship is 6 months and it must always take place within the academic period of the program, with the exception of the MBA FT. Internships are not mandatory for obtaining the degree. Students who are not up to date with payments will not be eligible for internships. **Companies may require internship candidates with specific levels of English. In any case, this level is defined by the company and not by the School, so ESDEN is not responsible for the non-acceptance of candidates who do not meet this requirement.

The Internship Collaboration Agreement covers only the Spanish territory.

Immersion Week at Istituto Marangoni (Milan) and London School of Economics and Political Science (London): Students who have included in their Academic Programs one of these two Immersion Weeks, will have included in the price of the Master the accommodation from Sunday to Friday in a shared double room, half board.

Diplomas: The issuance and shipment of the academic titles will be materialized once the student has passed the evaluation tests proposed in the contracted program, and having paid the full payment of the aforementioned program. The non-granting of a diploma for academic or administrative reasons will not entitle the student to claim any amount from the School. The School may refuse to grant the corresponding degree if the student: does not accredit a university degree or at least 3 years of demonstrable professional experience in positions related to the syllabus of the contracted program; has missed more than 20% of the classes; or has not passed the final master’s project if the academic program includes it.

Withdrawal of diplomas. The student authorizes ESDEN so that, in the event of not being able to personally pick up the diplomas or certificates issued by the corresponding Educational Institution, any representative of ESDEN may do so, and in turn will be sent to the student via postal mail.

The contract is understood to be formalized and these general conditions accepted, from the moment the student signs or sends the enrollment contract for the postgraduate program, the School commits to provide the service corresponding to the total duration of the academic program and the student commits to the total payment of the same regardless of the payment method chosen. In other cases in which the student decides to voluntarily abandon the contracted academic program, he/she will not be entitled to a refund of the amounts already paid. In the event that the School, for reasons of force majeure (extraordinary, unforeseeable or unavoidable events that make it definitively impossible to provide the service, such as flood, fire, etc.), should have to suspend the contracted service, the center will inform the students at least 30 days in advance, whenever possible, reimbursing the students the proportional part of all amounts already paid that correspond to services pending execution.
