New VET Student Loans

From 1 January 2017, the Australian Government will no longer offer VET FEE-HELP (VFH) loans and a new VET Student Loans program will commence.

If you currently have a VFH loan and you are continuing your program in 2017, the Government will contact you to give you the option to continue to access VFH until 31 December 2017, or to apply for the new VET Student Loans program.

If you are commencing a new program after 1 January 2017, you will need to apply for the new VET Student Loans program.

When to enrol

At the end of each year, you must enrol in classes or take an approved leave of absence online during the enrolment period.

For programs starting in 2018, the enrolment period is from Wednesday 8 November until 5pm Monday 18 December 2017.

Don't miss this deadline or you may lose your place in your program. If you have missed the deadline and wish to continue studying, apply for late enrolment.

If you owe a debt to the University, you won't be able to enrol until the debt is paid. Find out about fees and payment options.
