Questions, Answered

Everything you might ask before joining.

We've grouped the questions we hear most often โ€” from batch sizes and fees to visa timelines and refund policies. If yours isn't here, just message us.

Where is Calizona Global based?

Our main campus is in Chennai, and we run online batches for students across India and abroad. Video counselling is available for anyone outside Chennai.

Do you offer free counselling before I enrol?

Yes โ€” every prospective student gets a free counselling session with a subject counsellor. It includes a short diagnostic test, a target-score assessment, and a study plan. Book via the contact form or WhatsApp.

How do I get in touch quickly?

The fastest route is WhatsApp โ€” +91 73582 63488. We respond within 30 minutes during business hours. Email works too: contact@calizonaglobal.com.

Can I attend a demo class before enrolling?

Yes. All our programmes offer a free trial session so you can see the teaching style, meet the instructor, and check the batch dynamics before committing.

What is the batch size?

Test-prep batches are capped at 15 students. Language batches (French, German) are capped at 12. We've kept these numbers stable because they're the largest that still allow weekly one-on-one feedback.

Are batches available online?

Yes. Every programme runs in three formats โ€” classroom, online-live, and hybrid. Content, batch cap, and instructor are the same across formats. You can also switch mid-course if your schedule changes.

What are the batch timings?

We run morning, evening, and weekend batches on weekdays, and dedicated weekend-only batches for working professionals. Online batches include an early-morning slot and a late-evening slot for students in different time zones.

How many mock tests are included?

GMAT: 8 ยท IELTS: 10 ยท TOEFL: 8 ยท SAT: 10 ยท CAT: 25+. Every mock is followed by an analysis session โ€” that's where the real improvement happens.

Do you teach GRE?

Not currently. We focus on the exams above so we can go deep on each one with dedicated 99th-percentile faculty. If GRE is your target, we can recommend trusted partners.

Can I repeat a batch if I don't hit my target score?

Yes. If your final mock score is below the target range and you attended 90%+ of sessions, you can repeat the next batch at no additional cost. This is a standard part of our commitment.

What abroad services do you offer?

End-to-end: profile evaluation, university shortlisting, applications, SOPs, LORs, essays, visa documentation, financial planning, loan liaison, mock visa interviews, and pre-departure orientation.

Which countries do you cover?

USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Ireland, Singapore, and New Zealand. Each has a dedicated country counsellor who's placed 100+ students in that destination.

How early should I start the abroad process?

For September/Fall intake, ideally 12โ€“14 months before. For January intake, 8โ€“10 months before. We can accommodate faster timelines but earlier starts get better shortlists and scholarships.

Do you help with education loans?

Yes. We work with a panel of banks and NBFCs specialising in education loans, including collateral-free options up to a certain amount. We help with documentation, application, and follow-up.

Do you help with scholarships?

Yes. Our counsellors run scholarship-mapping for every student โ€” merit-based, need-based, country-specific, and university-specific. Several of our students receive full or partial scholarships each year.

What happens after I land in the country?

Every abroad student gets added to our alumni WhatsApp group for their city and university. Alumni help with housing, first-week logistics, and everything the counsellors can't do from India.

What are the course fees?

Fees vary by programme, batch format (classroom / online / hybrid), and duration. We share detailed fee structures during the free counselling session โ€” no hidden charges, ever.

Do you offer instalment options?

Yes. Fees can be paid in 2 or 3 instalments for most programmes, aligned with programme milestones. We keep this flexible because we know education is a family investment.

What is your refund policy?

Full refund (minus a small admin fee) if you withdraw before the second week. Partial refund up to the fourth week. After that, we shift to a repeat-batch guarantee instead of monetary refund. Details in the enrolment agreement.

Are there additional charges for mock tests or study materials?

No. Every batch fee includes all mock tests, digital and print study materials, and access to the online question bank for 12 months from enrolment.

Do you charge separately for the abroad services?

Yes โ€” abroad services are a separate package because most students take them independently of test prep. Bundled pricing is available if you're doing both with us.

Can I get an invoice or GST receipt?

Yes. GST-compliant invoices are issued for every fee payment. Corporate sponsorship documentation is available on request for professionals whose employer is funding the course.
