Information about course fees can be found under the respective course.

Our fees are divided into two categories: reduced fees, and fees for external participants.

The following participants are eligible for reduced fees:

• students of all universities and colleges in Germany

• school students

• vocational trainees

• employees of the University of Mannheim

• members of the Studierendenwerk Mannheim

• ABSOLVENTUM members

• au-pairs

People who do not belong to any of the above-mentioned groups are charged the regular fees for external participants. 

NOTE: Possible exceptions are stated directly under the course in question.

• A cancellation of your registration for a course after the cancellation notice period (i.e. later than 6 days before the course begins, to the day) is only possible in person in our office during our office hours, or via e-mail, if someone on the waiting list can move up to take your place or if you can offer a substitute participant. If there is no one to take over the cancelled slot, the course fee will nonetheless be charged to you.

• Not showing up for the course does not constitute a formal cancellation. In principle, non-attendance will lead to the course fee being charged or, if it has already been paid, it will not be refunded.

• Should the course be cancelled on our part, or if you are forced to cancel on account of circumstances beyond your control (e.g. illness [in which case a doctor’s certificate needs to be presented]), the course fee will be refunded.

• In the event that too few people sign up for a course, the course generally has to be cancelled, as each course needs to pay for itself with the course fees.
