Refunds process

Refund applications must be lodged in writing within 14 days of the student meeting the requirements for a refund, or an overpayment is identified. Applications can be submitted in person or via email.

Once received, HANMAC’s directors will consider the refund application, approve or deny the application and decide on the amount to be refunded to successful applicants. The applicant will be informed of the director’s decisions within 14 days of a decision being reached.

Refunds will only be provided to the person or organisation who made payment, will never be more then what has been paid/overpaid by the applicant, and will only be provided in the same way that payment was taken i.e. returned to credit card/debit card, eftpos etc. HANMAC reserves the right to verify that the applicant is the payer before paying a refund. 

The applicant will have 1 month from the date of approval to claim their refund. After this period the applicant will be required to reapply again.
