Enrolling several members of one household
When two people from the same household study in the same year, the arrangement simplifies: a shared file, one payment schedule, a single payment date. The group rate is then assessed on file, at application time.
One household, one cash flow
Two enrolments in one household weigh on the same monthly budget, and that reality is what the arrangement takes into account. The file is submitted once for both people, the schedule is set on a single date, and progress is read from one balance. Yet each keeps their own space, their work, their assessments and their credential: what is pooled is the cash flow, never the learning route. The group rate itself is assessed on file at application time, as for any collective enrolment.
What the family arrangement simplifies
- A shared application file, submitted once
- A single payment schedule, set on one date in the month
- A household-level balance, in addition to the individual ones
- A cumulative payment statement, useful for an administrative file
- A single point of contact in admissions, for both applications
Two routes from one household, on the same line
A long programme and a short course combine well within one household: both schedules align on the same date, and the monthly load is read at a glance.

Household questions
Must both people take the same programme?
No: each chooses their own from the catalogue. Only the file, the schedule and the payment date are shared, and they stay so whatever combination is chosen.
Can a third person be added during the year?
Yes, through an application linked to the existing file. An addendum to the schedule brings the new enrolment onto the same payment date.
Does the merit scholarship remain accessible?
Each application is reviewed on its own terms, with its own documents. The family arrangement concerns cash flow only; it has no bearing on how files are reviewed.
