Skip the Schmooze, Pay the Fee After Enrollment for That Study Program Spot
Only the course acceptance necessitates the payment of the study place fee. - Payment for placement is due solely at the moment of enrollment to the academic program.
Here's the lowdown:
A wily customer snagged Studimed, a broker, to secure a coveted med spot at Mostar University in Bosnia's heart. But hey, fickle heart, right? He pulled the ol' switcheroo later on, not wanting to commit. Yet, our cunning broker demanded a fee equivalent to an annual tuition, claiming the university was all onboard.
But wait a minute, mate! The BGH (Germany's top court) called BS on that, and here's why. The shindig falls under real estate agency law, and according to that rule, the fee only gets paid if a contract's signed.
Guess what? Like a rocket launch that never leapt off the pad, the guy didn't accept the med spot offer. You do the math—no contract, no cash outlay!
If he had been left with no choice but to fork over the dough, he'd've been shafted something fierce.

A quick rundown of enrichment insights:
- The search results don't provide specifics on any BGH ruling relating to brokerage fees for admission spots to study programs, especially in the context of Bosnia.
- The search results refer to the Bosnia and Herzegovina Competition Council applying new tariffs as of November 2018 in a different context, not linked to the BGH ruling.
- The broker's claim that the University of Mostar approved an annual tuition-equivalent fee for securing a study program spot is disputed, as it falls under real estate agency law, meaning the fee is only payable if a contract is signed.
- In the event the individual had been forced to pay the fee without accepting the study program offer, he would have been significantly disadvantaged.
