Coventry College’s decision is final, and no correspondence will be entered into.

Return of any prize notification as undeliverable or failure to reply as specified in the instructions may result in disqualification and selection of an alternate winner.

Where necessary, in order to determine an outright winner or winners to a competition, Coventry College reserve the right to request entrants to take part in an eliminating contest or tie breaker.
