INDIVIDUAL LESSONS/MINI-GROUPS – CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY
Class cancellations of individual lessons/mini groups:

  • In case of a cancellation of a class, students have to notify the Alliance française at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled class.
  • Without this 24-hour notice, the cancelled course will be fully charged except in the case of force majeure (disease, accident) duly proven. A catch-up class will then be arranged. If classes are cancelled due to government restrictions, catch-up classes will not be arranged.
  • Refund of individual lessons: Private tuitions are non-refundable.

EXAM FEES – REFUND POLICY
Once registered, neither cancellation nor refund of the Exam Fee is possible.
If the Alliance Française de Colombo is obliged to cancel a DELF-DALF or a TEF session due to Government restrictions, candidates can opt for either a full reimbursement of their exam fee, or a transfer to the next equivalent DELF-DALF or TEF session.
