University tuition in China can't be refunded, but foreign students can. International students can convert their tuition fees into points. In other words, cash will not be refunded, but after students get employed, the income tax to be paid can be reduced by these points. And these points have no time limit and can be used at any time. Some universities prepare tax bills for students who come to study every year. After that, students can find their own tax payment certificate on the school's website, which is also called T2202A form, and then they can be converted into points.

For college students, as long as they meet the statutory conditions, they can of course apply for personal income tax refund. College students who work part-time and study part-time at school, and their wages reach the threshold of personal income tax, but the applicable tax rate of comprehensive income is higher than the legal standard or the special expenses are not deducted according to law, resulting in overpayment of taxes, can apply for tax refund. The conditions for personal income tax refund mainly include the following aspects: 1. Mispaying taxes for various reasons, such as paying taxes repeatedly, misusing taxes or paying taxes in advance in the previous year; 2. There are some changes in the national tax policy; 3. For other reasons, tax refund is required; 4. When paying taxes in advance, the comprehensive income tax was not paid in full. In order to facilitate taxpayers to get the tax refund, if the taxpayer's comprehensive income in 20 19 does not exceed 60,000 yuan and personal income tax has been paid in advance, the tax authorities will provide convenient tax refund function in the online tax bureau (including mobile personal income tax APP), and taxpayers can apply for the annual tax refund through a simple declaration form from March 1 day to May 3 1 day, 2020.

Taxpayers who pay the annual final tax payment can pay through online banking, POS card swiping of tax service hall, bank counters, non-bank payment institutions, etc.
