Short Course Enrolment Information:

To Enrol

Send your completed enrolment form to: Short Courses Administrator, Dept of Archaeology, University of Bristol, 43 Woodland Road, Bristol BS8 1UU. Please make cheques payable to ‘University of Bristol’.

For short notice bookings, phone: 0117 9546070. Please note the administrator works one day per week and can only take phone bookings when in the office.

When to enrol

Prior enrolment is essential; students who do not enrol in advance will not be permitted to attend a course. Please note also that course enrolment numbers are reviewed two weeks before the start date and courses may be cancelled at this stage if there are not enough enrolments. Students are therefore advised to enrol early to ensure that the course of their choice runs.

To check whether there are spaces available on the course of your choice, you may wish to check the website: www.bristol.ac.uk/archanth/continuing/shortcourses; our voicemail on 0117 9546070; or e-mail us on arch-lifelong@bristol.ac.uk.

Cancellations and refunds

If a student chooses to cancel his or her place, a refund of the course fee will be given only in exceptional circumstances. A cancellation fee equivalent to 10% of the tuition fee will be charged. If a course is cancelled or withdrawn by the University at or prior to its third meeting, course fees will normally be refunded in full within three weeks.

If find you are unable to attend on the day of the course please leave a message with the administrator on 01179546070. This will be passed to the tutor in hindsight. There is unfortunately no means of contacting the tutor directly on the day to inform them of your absence, because our courses run outside of normal university hours.
