If you are a domestic student, you may be eligible for a Commonwealth supported place (HECS-HELP). There are two forms of HECS-HELP assistance:
  • HECS-HELP Loan: This is a loan from the Australian Government for all or part of your student contribution amount. No repayment is required until your income exceeds the threshold ($41,594 2008-2009) (CPI Indexed).

  • HECS-HELP Discount: If you pay up-front all, or at least $500, of your student contribution amount for units by the census date, you will receive a 20% discount on the amount you pay. Some students are required to pay their student contribution upfront and are ineligible for the upfront discount.
