Government VET Student Loan (VSL)
A VET Student Loan is a loan from the Australian Government that helps eligible students pay some or all of their course tuition fee. If you are eligible for the VET Student Loan, your out-of-pocket fee is the $100 materials fee . NOTE: Your student loan repayments (through your income tax if your above the minimum income threshold) will be based on your annual income, not the value of the course loan amount, so it will be the same amount for either the Core Skills program or the Advanced Rehab program each year.
Self-Finance Option
If you’re not eligible for any Subsidy or Funding options, you can self-finance the course tuition fee in interest-free monthly repayments over the duration of the course.
