Student Loan

Helpful information about Student Loans:

The Student Loan is administered by Studylink.

• We recommend applying for the Student Loan as early as possible, at least 6 weeks prior to the course start date, to ensure your fees are paid on time. Ideally, you apply in November or December 2009 for study in 2010. Your enrolment does not have to be completed before applying for the Student Loan. See our tips sheet for detailed advice.

• Cancelling your Student Loan does not cancel your enrolment. You still need to formally withdraw from your courses before the final date for refunds or you will be liable for the fees.
• You need to reapply for the Student Loan for each year of study.
• If you enrol for a summer course(s), remember that you must reapply for the Student Loan even if you had already applied for the Loan to cover your 1st and 2nd trimester enrolment.
• If you are claiming the course related costs be aware that they become available 14 days prior to the course start date and can be claimed at any time during the academic period.
