The following policies apply to all Chi University (CHI) on-site and online “events/courses” including but not limited to Continuing Education (CE) classes, sessions, and certification programs, seminars, conferences, workshops, tours, accommodation packages, add-ons, and exams.

Cancellation and refund policies for Chi University Graduate Programs can be found here: https://chiu.edu/policies/university.

Request

CHI event/course cancellations will only be processed by calling our registration department directly at +1-800-860-1543 or emailing register@chiu.edu. Please indicate whether you would like to: 1) transfer, or 2) be refunded, as outlined below. Unless a refund is specifically requested, any payments associated with the cancelled event/course will be retained by CHI but remain available to transfer (if eligible).

CHI will confirm all cancellation requests by email. If the student does not receive a confirmation of cancellation within three business days of the request, the student should call +1-800-860-1543 or email register@chiu.eduto reconfirm.

International students attending an on-site event/course are responsible for any government customs, regulations, and restrictions. If a student is refused entry into the country of the event/course, the standard cancellation policies will apply.

Financial responsibility remains with the student for all event/course fees unless a proper cancellation request is received and confirmed by CHI prior to the start of the event/course.

Transfers

To reschedule an event/course by rolling your enrollment and any associated payments over to a different offering, a transfer may be requested. Events/courses may only be transferred if requested one or more days prior to its start date.

The student is responsible for paying any increase between the registered event/course and the event/course transferred into. An event/course can be transferred only ONCE. After the transfer, the registration is no longer transferable, and any payment associated with it is no longer refundable.

Fees

The following transfer fees apply as measured by the number of calendar days prior to the original event/course start date that the cancellation was requested. The fee is calculated based on the total event/course cost.

  • 30 or more days: No fee
  • 29 days - 1 day: 10% fee
  • Events/courses that have already begun are no longer eligible to be transferred.

For Chi Germany classes:

  • 30 or more days: No fee
  • 29 days - 15 days: 10% fee
  • 14 days or fewer: No transfer permitted

Refunds

Refunds for event/course cancellations will be credited back to the original payment source. In extenuating circumstances, students may be contacted for other refund arrangements such as a check or wire transfer. Refund requests should be sent to register@chiu.edu.
