09.1 Fees

Students elect their tuition fee payment option, either FEE-HELP (for eligible domestic students) or Upfront, at registration each year. For information on FEE-HELP see the Australian Government’s Study Assist website. There is a loan fee charged.

FEE-HELP may cover all or part of the tuition fees for a unit of study.

For students applying for FEE-HELP assistance, any upfront portion of tuition fees is payable by the week immediately preceding the Census Date of each semester. Any enrolled student who is eligible for FEE-HELP and has not paid up-front tuition fees before the Census Date for applicable units of their course is required to apply for FEE-HELP if they wish to continue with their studies for that semester.

About one month before the Census Date students will receive a financial statement from the Finance Department for any units of study for that semester.

For students not applying for FEE-HELP assistance, tuition fees are payable by the week immediately preceding the Census Date of each semester.

 

Census Date for Semester 1 Units: 30 April

Census Date for Semester 2 Units: 31 August

 

Students who are not able to pay in full tuition fees when they are due during an academic year should contact the Financial Controller to make alternative arrangements finance@moore.edu.au.

Students who have outstanding debts including tuition fees due to the College may be excluded from units of study and may not receive results of assessments. If a debt is still outstanding by the time end of year results are released the student will not be eligible to receive these results and will not be permitted to enrol in the following academic year or graduate (whichever is applicable). Any exceptions to this regulation must be approved by the Principal.

Fees and other amounts payable by students are determined by the Governing Board of the College after the preparation of the College financial budget in the August/September prior to each academic year.

Certain charges are subject to the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

Each year Moore College receives a grant from the Synod of the Diocese of Sydney to cover some general running costs of the College. Fees charged to students for tuition and for some single accommodation are the main other source of College income. Fees are set at a level that seeks to recover the costs of the College teaching program.

Supporters of the College frequently give money to provide assistance for needy students. Any student who is experiencing financial difficulties should discuss their situation with the Finance Department.
