Anyone know of Yingqiao School, Hulunbuir city, China (Questions About Schools)

Hello,
Ive applyed for a TESOL Course with Will-Excell (www.WillExcelTESOL.com) which has found me a Job for after it is complete, the job offer is with 'Yingqiao Foreign Language Training School' in Hulunbuir city, inner Mongloia.
All the information I could find about the school was afew adverts for teachers and this info - http://www.e-jobfair.com/schoollistdetail.jsp?schoolcode=4457

Im wondering if anyone knows of this school or maybe had successfully completed a Will-Excel course....
Will-Excel are asking for initial payment of $250 to secure my place, they say this must be paid within 48hrs, is it common for there to be just 48hrs to pay? The course is mainly sponsored by the school in Hulunbuir total price is $1500 but with an offer I only have to pay $250

Im mainly wondering if people think this is a real offer and realistic as i have read some information about scams and such...some more info about the school job offer - 5000RMB p/m, appartment (not shared), 12month contract, they pay to change work visa to work permit, 8000RMB contract end bonus, 2000RMB each holiday 2 week summer 2 week winter, Health Insurance, 20hours work per week...
I dont know if this seems like a realistic offer for someone who will have a 160hr TESOL certificate and a College Diploma, no degree/experiance.

The main question is, is it common to be asked for the Deposit and limited to 48hrs in which to pay?

Hope people can help with this, thanks for your time.
