After submitting all the fees, if I do not get my visa, do I get a refund of my fees in Ireland/Australia?

Yes, most institutions offer a partial refund if your student visa is denied after you've paid tuition fees. The refund amount and process depend on the institution and country.

- Canada: Typical policy is a refund minus an administrative fee (e.g., Lambton College deducts $350 CAD).
- Australia: Universities often retain a small portion (e.g., University of New England keeps $500 AUD).
- Ireland: Some institutions refund 100% if you provide visa refusal proof before a deadline.

You must submit official proof of visa refusal, and deadlines or conditions may apply.
