Terms
Plain terms for everything sold on this site: the strategy hour, the reports and Premium.
Expect to work. This is intensive work. You will be set tasks between sessions and are expected to do them, prepare properly and engage fully. The result depends on your effort as much as on mine.
48 hours to reschedule. A session can be moved with at least 48 hours' notice. A session cancelled with less notice, or missed, counts as delivered and is not made up.
By paying you accept these terms. Full terms →
1. Who you are contracting with
Academic Quant is the trading name of an independent practice.
2. What these terms cover
- The strategy hour: a one-hour call. After payment you receive a link to choose a time.
- Reports: the Quant Careers Report, the MBA Admissions Report and the STEM Admissions Report, delivered as PDF files.
- Premium: subscriptions giving access to the practice questions, worked solutions, timed tests and Ask AI for the plan you choose.
- Any other work, only where agreed in writing beforehand, on the terms set out in that agreement.
3. Prices and payment
- Everything is paid in full, in advance. A strategy hour is scheduled once payment has cleared.
- Prices are quoted and charged in pounds sterling.
- VAT is applied only where the law requires it. Most customers established outside the European Union are outside scope.
- Bank charges on international transfers are borne by the customer.
4. Cancellation and refunds
- Reports are digital files delivered immediately. Purchases are not refunded.
- Premium subscriptions renew automatically for the same period until cancelled. You can cancel at any time from your account; access continues to the end of the period already paid for and no further payment is taken. Subscription payments are not refunded.
- The strategy hour, packages, programmes and any other work are paid in full and in advance, and are not refunded once paid.
- Sessions (the strategy hour, or any session within a package or programme) can be moved with at least 48 hours' notice. A session cancelled with less than 48 hours' notice, or missed, is treated as delivered: it is not made up and not refunded.
- The 14-day right. The one exception is the one the law requires: a consumer in the EU or UK can normally cancel an online purchase within 14 days by emailing enquiries@academicquant.co.uk, and this lasts only until delivery. At checkout you ask for delivery to begin at once and confirm that the right then ends: for a report, when the file is made available to you; for the strategy hour, when the hour has been delivered.
- The work asks a great deal of you. You will be set work between sessions and are expected to do it, prepare and take part fully. Outcomes depend on that effort.
5. What is not promised
No admission, offer, score or scholarship is guaranteed. Admissions committees, examiners and employers make their own decisions on their own criteria. What is promised is what is described on this site for the product you buy, delivered competently.
6. Your work is yours
I edit, question and challenge. I do not write application essays, personal statements or assessed work on your behalf, and I will not do so if asked. Submitting work that is not substantially your own breaches the rules of every institution named on this site and the risk of doing so falls on you.
7. Confidentiality
Everything you tell me, about your application, your employer, your family or your finances, is confidential and is not discussed with anyone. Testimonials and case studies are published only with your specific written consent, and consent may be withdrawn at any time.
8. Materials
Reports, questions, solutions and other materials are licensed for your personal use and remain my intellectual property. Please do not copy, share or redistribute them, or share your account.
9. Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death, personal injury, fraud, or anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded. Otherwise liability is limited to the amount you paid for the product concerned.
10. Consumer rights
If you buy as a consumer, nothing in these terms takes away the protection given to you by the mandatory law of your country of residence.
