All refunds will be processed within the next 7-10 working days.

10. When will students know the refund has been issued?

An auto-generated acknowledgement will be sent to students to notify them when March 2020 exam bookings have been officially withdrawn and refunds issued.

11. Can the exam fee refund be returned to student bank accounts instead of myACCA?

All refunds will be issued to student myACCA accounts (where the student has paid for the exam).

Once this has been issued, if any student would prefer for the refund to be made to a bank account then please contact the Connect team on students@accaglobal.com with details of your request.

12. If there are overdue fees on student accounts not directly related to exams, will this affect the exam fee refund?

All exam fee refunds will be returned to student accounts whereby the student has made the initial payment. This refund will be automatically allocated against any overdue invoices currently active on student accounts

In order to enter for future exams, all students should ensure overdue fees are paid in full as an exam entry cannot be made otherwise.

13. If a withdrawal was sent to the exams mailbox as requested, but not processed in time to allow students to enter at the early entry rate for June 2020 (deadline 10 February), can students still be entered at the early rate?

Only students who entered for the March 2020 exam session during the early entry period will be able to enter at the early entry rate for the June 2020 session if they have missed the 10 February deadline.

Students in this category who are not yet entered for June and would like to be, should enter via the Exam Planner during the standard period as normal. Following this, ACCA would credit their account with the difference between the early and standard period.
