Hi guys,
I've just been offered a place at Edhec Business School in France. They ask me to pay a first instalment of 7500€ before April 8th which is according to them, non refundable... However, I am waiting the results of other better ranked schools (ESSEC, ESCP) which will not come before mid-June... I know I can wait a bit more than April 8th for paying the first instalment (up to beginning of May) but by waiting too long, I might see my offer disappear. I called them and asked for the contract to see if the 7500€ were really non-refundable and the man I had on the phone told me there was no contract. I insisted for a legal document such as sales conditions but he answered there was no contract. So my question is the following: are these 7500€ really non refundable? Legally, with no contract, can't I recover them?
Thank you for your help,
Adam

A friend of mine had a similar situation with a German University. In his case it was 5000 Euro. He was also waiting for other universities he was hoping to get into. In the end he paid and couldn't get it back as he got into a better university and attended that one instead.
The rationale behind universities doing this is because they're scared of many admitted students choosing to attend a different university and this is their way of trying to force them into a binding decision.
So in the end its a gamble, don't pay and hope to get in elsewhere, or play it safe and pay and then either lose the money or give up on other unis.
