What is VET FEE-Help?

VET FEE-HELP is a loan given to eligible fee-paying students to help pay for part, or all, of their tuition fees which means that you can begin studying without paying any upfront fees. Students repay the loan to the Australian Government through the tax system once a student reaches the minimum income threshold level for repayment.

Who is an eligible student?

An eligible student (for the purpose of VET FEE-HELP):

  • is an Australian citizen or permanent humanitarian visa holder who will be resident in Australia for the duration of the unit of study in which they are seeking VET FEE-HELP assistance;
  • is a full fee-paying student enrolled on or before the census date in an eligible unit of study through an approved VET provider and remains enrolled in the unit at the end of the census date;
  • meets the tax file number requirements;
  • has completed, signed and submitted a valid request for VET FEE-HELP assistance form for the unit or the course of which the unit forms a part, on or before the census date; and
  • has not exceeded the VET FEE-HELP limit.

How do I apply?
