Do not do it. Sod how good the school is, NEVER PAY UP FRONT!

Ok ... so what happens then if you get get out there, ie. to OFT having paid for your flights/visa/tsa/course deposit and then they say to you, "We won't let you train until you have paid for the course up front" ... they have you over a barrel. Have you ever been in that situation Mr Scroggs?
