Chapter 3—Assistance to students

Division 65—Introduction

65‑1  What this Chapter is about

      This Chapter deals with a person's Student Learning Entitlement and provides for 5 kinds of assistance that the Commonwealth provides to students.
          Note: The Commonwealth meets all or part of the higher education costs of students who are enrolled in places funded under Part 2‑2.
      A person may be entitled to HECS‑HELP assistance for a unit of study for which the person is a Commonwealth supported student if, among other things, the unit is covered by the person's Student Learning Entitlement. Part 3‑1 deals with a person's Student Learning Entitlement.
      The 5 kinds of assistance available under this Chapter are:
         • HECS‑HELP assistance—assistance to meet a student's liability to pay student contribution amounts for units of study that are Commonwealth supported (see Part 3‑2);
         • FEE‑HELP assistance—assistance to meet a student's liability to pay tuition fees for units of study that are not Commonwealth supported (see Part 3‑3);
         • OS‑HELP assistance—assistance to a student who, as part of his or her course of study, is to undertake study overseas (see Part 3‑4);
         • SA‑HELP assistance—assistance to a student on whom a student services and amenities fee is imposed (see Part 3‑5); and
         • STARTUP‑HELP assistance—assistance to a student undertaking an accelerator program course (see Part 3‑7).
      The Commonwealth pays the assistance to the relevant higher education provider either (in the case of HECS‑HELP assistance, FEE‑HELP assistance, SA‑HELP assistance and STARTUP‑HELP assistance) to discharge the student's liability, or (in the case of OS‑HELP assistance) to pay to students on the Commonwealth's behalf.
      The assistance is (in most cases) in the form of a loan from the Commonwealth to the student.
Note: Chapter 4 deals with the repayment of loans made under this Chapter.
