Refund Policy

Should a student elect to withdraw from the programme, CIM shall process any applicable refund in accordance with the terms set forth in the CIM Refund Policy, which adheres strictly to the regulatory requirements established by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA). For comprehensive details, please refer to the Refund Policy.

International Student Fee Protection

All international student tuition fees are protected through the Public Trust, CIM’s approved NZQA Student Fee Protection provider. This ensures that in the event of programme closure or provider default, students will receive an appropriate refund or alternative placement.

Students may confirm their individual fee protection status by contacting Public Trust directly at www.publictrust.co.nz or by calling 0800 494 733. In the event of CIM’s closure, students may lodge a claim through the Public Trust using their student ID and enrolment confirmation.

Misuse of Policy

CIM is committed to processing all refund applications fairly, transparently, and in good faith. To uphold the integrity of this process, CIM reserves the right to decline refund requests where:

  • The request is supported by falsified documentation or intentionally misleading information; or
  • There is evidence of coercive, threatening, or abusive behaviour toward staff during the refund process; or
  • The application seeks to exploit the refund process for purposes unrelated to genuine educational or compassionate circumstances.

Any such cases will be assessed in line with CIM’s Student Code of Conduct and relevant disciplinary procedures. CIM reserves the right to notify Immigration New Zealand or relevant authorities in cases involving fraud or visa breaches.
