There is no application fee for requesting HELP. All HELP forms need to be returned to University before census date. The HELP debt is incurred immediately after census date. Students begin to pay back ir HELP loan once y start earning over $51,309 (as at tax year). The Tax Office calculates compulsory payments, and this depends on how much over threshold a person is currently earning. Therefore, more a person earns higher compulsory repayment will be until debt is repaid. There is no interest charged on a HELP loan, but loan is indexed annually to maintain its real value. If a student wishes to withdraw from a unit or a course, y need to withdraw before university census date and follow correct withdrawal procedures.
