Understanding the Class Levels
Common European Framework of Reference for Languages
The letter and number combination indicates the level of the class. The number after the decimal point indicates the progression through the level and the accompanying book (A1.1 → A1.2 → A1.3 → A2.1 etc.).
Not sure which level is right for you? Take our online language assessment.
GAI Policies
- If there are too few students registered to hold a course section, the Director of Language Education will contact the student(s) in the week prior to the term’s start date to discuss other class options, or, if needed, a course refund or credit towards a course in the future.
- If there are 14 or more students registered for a class, it will be divided into two sections.
- If opting to purchase a book through the GAI, course and textbook fees are due in full before the first class session unless other arrangements have been made with the Director of Language Education.
- Textbooks are non-refundable, no exceptions.
Cancellation or Withdraw:
If a student/parent withdraws 7 or more days prior to the first class session, they may choose tuition credit toward a future class, or request a full tuition refund by emailing [email protected]. For example, if the class begins on a Monday evening, you may withdraw without obligation up to the class time on the same day of the previous week. If a student/parent withdraws in the 6 days prior to the first class session, 75% of tuition will be refunded by emailing the request to [email protected]. No refunds will be offered after the first full class session. Class/session absences do not qualify for refunds. Credit card processing fees are non-refundable.
If the GAI completely cancels a full course for any reason, the student/parent will be notified and may choose a tuition-credit toward a future class or a full-tuition refund.
