You will be able to register for as many programmes as you like concurrently, so long as all prerequisite requirements and business rules are followed.

You can complete your payment through the ALX eHUB, with a variety of payment options available. Following monthly payments will be due one month from your programme start date. (Ex. If your programme starts on 18th November 2024, the first payment is due on that day, and the second instalment is due on the 18th December 2024.)

B. You can either pay the $5 USD All Access yourself or have someone pay on your behalf. ALX accepts all major credit cards, Apple and Google Pay, PayPal, and mobile money payment options. Some markets have cash options as well.

C. Pay on a monthly basis or several months ahead on the ALX eHUB.

You will not receive a refund if you are unable to complete the programme, however you will be able to pause your programme and restart your learning at a later date. Please note that the deferment cut-off dates vary by proramme and after these dates you would need to re-enroll into the next cohort.

A. ALX Learners have the option to defer their programme start date with the following guidance:

1. Your first All Access Payment is non-refundable: ALX All Access gives you access the full community, events, content and benefits and you will remain active on the system, even if you defer your programme start date. You will have the option to freeze your monthly payments until your deferred start date; in this case your next payment will be due by your new cohort start date.

2. You will not be able to carry your learning progress forward and will be required to start your cohort from week 1 – with exception of deferment after successful completion of Professional Foundations. Once a learner successfully completes Professional Foundations, deferment to any Tech Specialization is possible in accordance with the learning calendar.

3. You will not be required to go through the admissions process and will be able to enroll into your new cohort through the ALX eHUB.

The first All Access $5 USD payment is due on your programme start date. All subsequent payments are due one month from your programme start date, and will be communicated in your eHub profile and over email. Should you miss your payment deadline, your eHub access will be paused and you will have two weeks to make your payment and reactivate your profile. Your access will be restored again as soon as your payment is made. If you don’t make payment within your two week reactivation period, you will be considered as dropped out and will be required to reapply to your programme to continue.
