The initial deposit for UK universities is usually non-refundable, but exceptions may apply. Typically, you may be eligible for a refund if your visa application is refused, if the university withdraws its offer due to unmet academic or English language requirements, or if the program is cancelled. Each university has its own refund policy, so terms can vary. Please review the specific policy of your chosen university and let me know if you need help clarifying the details with their admissions office.
