I went to a german private school for 2 semesters that I've paid. However for the 3rd semester I quitted, and didn't attend any class or took any exam, but I didn't send a withdrawal letter until the middle of the semester. Now I have to pay the full semester.
The thing is here's the situation :
End of 2nd semester is August 31, but we don't start class of 3rd semester until October 2nd, and we finish classes and exams by end of June.
It is stated that if I want to withdraw, I have to send a letter before July 31st.
HOWEVER : I didn't know I wouldn't attend school before August 15th. We didn't have ANY class or any exam during 2 months, but still it was too late to withdraw. And as I've said I didn't know before July 31st (latest limit to send a withdraw letter from 3rd semester) that I wouldn't be able to attend.
