  • Step 2:  We will confirm with schools that this is correct. Please be patient this might take up to 4 weeks.
  • Step 3: We will confirm how many free weeks you are eligible for and then invite you to contact schools where you can use them in 2021.  (It has to be a school you have not worked with before).
  • Step 4: Make the arrangements directly with the schools of your interest and agree on when the free study weeks will take place in 2021.

3. What student weeks qualify

A student week is a study week which the Agency has paid for in an IH school and that the student has already completed. Promotional weeks already offered for free from schools are not calculated as student weeks. Internships within companies do not count as student weeks. If a school has recently affiliated the student weeks will be calculated from the moment the school has become a member of IHWO. If a school has multiple summer locations for example Junior Camps then that counts as one IH school.

4. Free weeks definition

These free study weeks comprise of tuition only. Books, enrolment fees, accommodation fees, travel expenses etc. are all excluded. All-inclusive packages such as junior programmes with accommodation and activities included, language + dancing/cooking/sport etc. are excluded too.

5. Participating IH Schools

We will send you a list of IH Schools where you can redeem your free weeks.

6. Restrictions

The schools will negotiate with you which weeks can be taken as ‘free’.  This may depend on availability and prior bookings. They will also specify which products qualify in this scheme.
