Financial Assistance - FEE-Help
FEE-HELP is a Government financial loan scheme for students attending private colleges.
All ACOM enrolled students who are Australian citizens (or on Humanitarian Visas) have access to government loans for both undergraduate and post-graduate study. The loan amount available is up to $80,000 (2007 indexed) and can be used over the lifetime of the student at all levels of higher education accredited training. The loan can be used for a single subject or a number of subjects, or for a complete award or a number of awards - it is the student's choice. The repayment of the loan commences once a student's taxable income exceeds $36,184. For further information go to the government website on FEE Help.
To access FEE-HELP, a student needs to complete a Request for FEE-HELP Assistance form and submit it to ACOM before the trimester begins. ACOM then submits the required information on each student seeking FEE-HELP to enable the Government to issue a Commonwealth Higher Education Student Support Number (CHESSN) to each student. This number will stay with the student for the rest of his/her life.
More information about FEE-Help can be found on the Australian Government's Going to Uni website.
