Tuition

Please check the booking details for deposit and tuition fees of the upcoming course.

The tuition fee does not include meals or accommodation, but these can be arranged easily upon arrival. For more information about accommodation (including resort recommendations), travel tips, visa information and details, information about food and local attractions, etc., please refer to our FAQ page

Program Acceptance and Deposit to Hold Reservation

Every ATIT applicant must submit a deposit along with the application, in order to be considered for acceptance to the program. This deposit must be made on Agama’s website using PayPal. Please carefully designate the course of your choice on our payments page

If Agama does not accept a student for participation, the full ATIT deposit amount will be refunded to the applicant’s PayPal account.

If Agama accepts a student for participation in the course requested, the deposit will be held in reserve upon approval notification to the student. ATIT participants will need to pay the balance of the tuition by one month prior to the course start date.

Payment for the remainder of the tuition is made on the same website page as the deposit was made. Please choose the correct course payment button.

Full tuition payment will constitute reconfirmation of a participant’s place in the course. If the full tuition balance has not been paid by these payment deadlines, a participant’s position will be considered forfeited.

Agama Yoga will not be held responsible for participants’ payment errors or inability to use the PayPal system, personal problems with their credit card account or credit limit, power outages or Internet inaccessibility, bank holidays, etc. These guidelines are given well in advance of these deadlines to give participants the opportunity to verify all of these factors and not to be surprised at the last moment. Please take advantage of this advance notice to investigate your account maximums, account functionality, etc. We advise you to handle your payment issues well in advance of these tuition payment deadlines as we will not be able to extend exceptions at such a late date to those who find themselves unprepared to pay for the course.

Withdrawal after Acceptance to the Program

A student who has been accepted to the Agama Yoga Tantra Instructor Training may withdraw by email notification at least two months prior to the start of the course, to: ttcregistration@archive.agamayoga.com. A student who notifies us of his or her intention to withdraw by this deadline will receive half the deposit returned by PayPal transfer.

Students withdrawing after the two months prior deadline will not receive any refund of their deposits.

Note that students who are accepted to the waiting list and have not yet been accepted to the ATIT may request a full refund of their course deposit at any point if they choose to withdraw from the waiting list. Once accepted to the ATIT, however, the guidelines outlined above governing deposit refunds apply.

Selections and Refund Policy

Agama Yoga holds very high standards for its teaching staff. Participants will be evaluated with emphasis given to their levels of enthusiasm, dedication, and aspiration. If Swami feels that within the first three weeks a participant has not demonstrated the necessary qualities to successfully complete the ATIT s/he will be refunded two-thirds of the tuition fee. No refund will be given after this point in the program.

If a student withdraws from the ATIT after the tuition payment deadline has passed, we will refund 50 percent of the tuition paid (minus deposit) up to 7 days before the start of the ATIT. After that, there will be no more refunds if the applicant withdraws.

If a student does not pass the final exam, he or she may retake the exam once. Should the student fail the make-up exam, he or she may participate in a future ATIT at a reduced cost of 25% percent of the course fee.

If the student does not meet the attendance requirements they can apply for another ATIT within two years at a reduced cost of 50 percent of the course fee.
