How Much Do I Pay?

The maximum SSAF amount students are required to pay is determined by the government and depends on study load.

The maximum 2024 SSAF for SAE is set at $326 for full-time students. The fee is charged per trimester at:

• $108.00 for full-time students* (FT = study load of 20 credit points and above)

• $81.00 for part-time students (PT = a study load of 10 credit points)

The maximum 2025 SSAF for SAE is set at $365 for full-time students.

The fee is charged per trimester at:

• $121.00 for full-time students* (FT = study load of 20 credit points and above)

• $91.00 for part-time students (PT = a study load of 10 credit points)

*SSAF-related Government Guidelines define ‘full-time’ as a study load of 0.25 EFTSL and above (the equivalent of 20 credit points and above), however this may differ to other definitions, such as those used by other government services and SAE.

Liability for the SSAF is based on enrolled study load at each trimester’s census date.

The amount you pay will depend on your enrolled study load at each census date.

The SSAF is a compulsory charge for all students enrolled at SAE.

The payment date or the date that the debt is incurred for SSAF is on census date, however cannot be earlier than the last dates students are able to enrol in a course.
