18 FEES/CHARGES/REFUNDS The Diploma of Rehabilitation has 4 prerequisite units of competency which are compulsory, and as they are part of the Certificate IV in Allied Health Assistance, are not included in the cost of the Diploma (and therefore cannot be included in a VET FEE-HELP loan). Cost for prerequisite units of competency: $400 This cost is payable on enrolment into the Introduction course (it cannot be added to your VET FEE-HELP loan). If you have previous qualifications and/or feel that you would be eligible for RPL or Credit Transfer in any of these units, please ring us to discuss we may be able to discount this cost. The costs for your Diploma of Rehabilitation (online) are as follows: Full Fee for Service Students and VET FEE-HELP students Course Cost = $7500 You can choose to one of the options below to pay your fees, or a combination of options: 1. You can pay the full amount for each Study prior to the census date of Unit of Study. 2. You can choose to pay by payment plan 5 equal payments per study period, or 3. You can apply for VET FEE-HELP assistance, for some or all of the amount. If you would like further information regarding fees charges and refunds, please contact the college. The College Schedule of Fees and Charges for 2016 can be found in this Course Guide, in Appendix A. VET FEE-HELP VET FEE-HELP is a student loan scheme that is funded by the Commonwealth Government to assist eligible students pay for their Diploma tuition fees. Students eligible for VET FEE-HELP can choose to defer all of their tuition fees, or pay some tuition fees upfront and defer the balance. Your loan is repaid through the Australian Taxation Office (ATO), when you reach the minimum income threshold for repayment. For 2015/2016 the threshold is: $54,126. This loan is not subject to income or assets tests. Page 18 of 37

19 Royal Rehab College is an approved provider of VET FEE-HELP. VET FEE-HELP allows you to study now and pay later. Eligible students can borrow up to the FEE-HELP limit to pay their tuition fees. The FEE-HELP limit is the total amount available to eligible students under both the VET FEE-HELP and FEE-HELP loan schemes. This means that any amount you borrow under either VET FEE-HELP or FEE-HELP will reduce your FEE-HELP balance (the amount of FEE-HELP you have left to use) until you have reached the FEE-HELP limit. For 2015, the FEE-HELP limit is $97,728 for most students. For students undertaking medicine, dentistry and veterinary science courses (as defined in the Higher Education Support Act 2003) the FEE-HELP limit is $122,162. The FEE-HELP limit is a lifetime limit and is not reset or topped up by any repayments that you make. There is also loan fee of 20% for full fee paying students. Repayment income is calculated from the amounts given on your income tax return for: Your taxable income; Reportable fringe benefits (reported on your payment summary); Total net investment loss (which includes net rental loss); Reportable super contributions; and Exempt foreign employment income amounts. The amount you repay each year is a percentage of your repayment income. The percentage increases as your income increases, so the more you earn, the higher your repayment will be. The ATO will calculate your compulsory repayment for the year and include it on your income tax notice of assessment. Please see the VET FEE-HELP Booklet for details on repayment amounts. Your VET FEE-HELP loan will have an impact on your credit rating. It needs to be remembered that this is a personal debt obligation and has wage and tax repayment obligations. To be eligible you must be either an Australian Citizen or the holder of an eligible permanent humanitarian visa. You must also provide a Tax File Number. Holders of other permanent visas and New Zealand citizens are NOT eligible for VET FEE-HELP. Please see the VET FEE-HELP booklet in the Study Assist website: HELP%20booklet.pdf for further eligibility details. You will receive a CHESSN. A CHESSN is a Commonwealth Higher Education Student Support Number which is allocated to all students when they first access Commonwealth Assistance. Your student loans are recorded against your CHESSN. You must always use the same CHESSN. If you already have a CHESSN, please supply that number when you enrol, or if this is the first time you have accessed Commonwealth Assistance, Royal Rehab College will provide you with one. Page 19 of 37

20 VET FEE-HELP courses are offered and charged by Units of Study. Royal Rehab College s Diploma of Rehabilitation course has 4 Units of Study and the course is delivered over a 24 month period. Each Study has a census date which is set no earlier than 20% into that Study. If you withdraw from the unit of study on or prior to that census date, you will not incur a debt for that Study. You will be provided with the course fees before you enrol. Prior to each census date (at least 14 days prior), you will be issued with an invoice, which will remind you of how much the next Study will cost and the date that you would have to withdraw by, if you did not wish to incur that debt. After the census date you will receive a CAN (Commonwealth Assistance Notice) which will confirm your debt for that Study. Royal Rehab College will consistently provide student support to all students, and will attempt to contact you if it looks like you are not progressing. We reserve the right to cancel your enrolment if you have not accessed your learning materials in a particular Study, to prevent you from being charged for the next Study and therefore incurring further debt. For general information on VET FEE-HELP, visit the Study Assist website at You MUST access and read the VET FEE HELP booklet, before you complete the request for VET FEE-HELP assistance form: HELP%20booklet.pdf If you are applying for RPL or credit transfer, please let us know before you apply for VET FEE-HELP assistance, so that we can adjust the amount of your fee accordingly. There are also some specific VET FEE-HELP policies and procedures in the Student Handbook, which you will need to read. The schedule of Study start and end dates, as well as the census dates are located in Appendix B. There are 2 different methods of payment for those students who are not taking up a VET FEE-HELP loan. Page 20 of 37

Refunds and Withdrawals If you wish to withdraw from the course, you must do so formally (by or by completing the withdrawal form found on the website).

This will also apply to those students who are VET FEE-HELP eligible but choose not to access the loan, and pay their payments per semester either by the census date or via the payment plan, as well as those students who are not eligible for VET Fee-Help. Please see the relevant VET FEE-HELP specific policy for: PROCEDURES RELATING TO RECREDITING OF VET FEE-HELP OR RECREDITING FEE FOR SERVICE IN SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES, in the Student Handbook.
