Blacklisted college says no to refund request

A Sino-Singapore college has angered students by denying withdrawal requests after it lost its qualified status from the Beijing education authority.

A 21-year-old freshman Qiu Chupeng from Beijing Huaxia Management College said his formal application, sent on Nov 10 to end his studies and receive a tuition refund, had been turned down.

He claimed to have made the application after learning that the Beijing education commission had blacklisted his school.
