Fees & Cancellation

In the sheet below you can find all information regarding our prices, if you need support from our team do not hesitate to send us an email

If students cannot stay for a whole term, they can register for one, two or three weeks, as long as they start at the beginning of the term. In this case the price will be calculated accordingly.

Due to the increasing inflation and the fluctuation of the dollar rates in Lebanon, we were unfortunately forced to slightly increase our prices. 

A 55$ registration fee has to be paid once by every student even if they attended LEVIT before. It covers administration fees. 

The payment for your courses is done in 2 parts at the LEVIT. You will first be required to transfer a deposit as written on your invoice. The second part of the payment has to be paid upon registration at the LEVIT, Please note that students who do not complete the payment at registration will not be allowed to enter class.  

Please make sure that you chose the right program and pace, once registered you will not be able to transfer to another program within the same term. Please make sure to carefully read the cancellation policy of the LEVIT.
