• Applications for a refund must be made in writing or via email to [email protected].
  Full refunds will only be made if they are received by the Confucius Institute 5 working days before the start date of the course.
• The first class of each course can be attended for free so students are able to ascertain their learning level but only if this has been discussed with the Administrative Officer. Payment must then be made before the second class. Culture courses are not eligible for trial sessions.
• Once payment has been made and the course has started, refunds will only be given for extenuating medical or personal circumstances. Requested refunds of this nature must be accompanied by evidence and will be approved on a case by case basis.

• We encourage each student to consider the time commitment needed for each course and ensure they feel able to attend the majority of lessons.
