If you defer your course, you will be required to pay the fees applicable at your new commencement date.

2 VARIATION OF TUITION FEES If you are required to repeat subjects to complete your course of study or granted a variation to your study load due to recognition of prior learning, a pro-rata fee will apply if the number of hours of study is less than 50 percent of a standard semester load. However, if the number of hours of study is equal to or more than 50 percent of a standard semester load, a full semester fee will apply.

3 TAFE NSW VOCATIONAL AND PACKAGED PROGRAMS (i) Payment of Fees

The next semester fee is payable two weeks before the commencement of the second semester/study period. For a package of TAFE NSW English (of more than 24 weeks) and vocational course program, new students must pay the application fee, OSHC, English Language tuition fee (maximum of 50 precent of the total course fee), $2000 tuition fee for the first semester of vocational course by the due date stated in the letter of offer and prior to the start of the English course. The balance of English Language tuition fee must be paid two weeks before the second study period (if applicable) and the balance of vocational course fee for the first semester must be paid three weeks before the commencement of the vocational course. When you pay fees for a packaged English language and vocational course with TAFE NSW, the fees for the English language course are charged at the packaged fee rate per week. If you withdraw from the TAFE vocational course, then the normal English language fee applies. Continuing English language students must pay the remainder of their tuition fee for their English language course of study by the due date on their additional fee statement (two weeks before the commencement of the next study period) or a late payment fee of A$200 will apply. Failure to pay the fees may lead to cancellation of enrolment. Academic results will be withheld when fees are outstanding.

Approval of the application is not guaranteed. Different tuition fees may apply for the same/different course at same/different colleges. Where a change of course/college is approved, either within a TAFE NSW Institute or at another TAFE NSW Institute, and a higher tuition fee applies for the same course at the second campus, you must pay any difference in the fees applicable before you can enrol in the second campus. If a lower fee applies for the same course at the second campus, you can either apply for a refund of the excess fee or the excess will be carried forward as a credit to next semester fee.

(iii) Refund Policy for Vocational Courses Tuition fees paid are not refundable if:

• A student fails to comply with the conditions of enrolment at a TAFE NSW Institute. • A student breaches any of the visa requirements of his or her visa as imposed by the Australian Government.

• A student withdraws from their vocational course on or after the commencement date of •

the course of study. A student/parent provides false or misleading information.

Part or whole of the tuition fees paid are refundable under the following circumstances:

• TAFE NSW will refund 100 percent of the tuition fees paid if your application for a visa to study in TAFE NSW is rejected before commencing a course.

• TAFE NSW will refund 90 percent of the tuition fees paid if you withdraw from your

•

vocational course 4 weeks (28 days) or more before course semester commencement, except where you have applied for a packaged English language and vocational course, where the English language fees have been charged at the packaged fee of A$300 per week. Withdrawal from the vocational course will incur the charge for the relevant English language fee calculated by reference to the weekly rate or the applicable rate for the stand alone English course. The difference between the relevant fee and the lower packaged fee for English will be deducted from the vocational course tuition fees. TAFE NSW will refund 80 percent of the tuition fees paid if you withdraw from your vocational course within the final 4 weeks (28 days) before the course semester commencement, except where you have applied for a packaged English language and vocational course, where the English language fees have been charged at the lower rate

per week. Withdrawal from the vocational course will incur the charge for the relevant English language fee calculated by reference to the weekly rate or the applicable rate for the stand alone English course. The difference between the relevant fee and the lower packaged fee for English will be deducted from the vocational course tuition fees. • TAFE NSW will refund 75 percent of the tuition fees paid for the vocational course where you: (a) Receive an offer for an undergraduate course which is not offered by TAFE NSW Higher Education in an Australian university immediately following the completion of the NSW Higher School Certificate; and (b) Withdraw from the vocational course no later than 14 days after the start date to take up your place in a higher education degree course. • If you commence a TAFE NSW course before your student visa application has been processed and it is subsequently rejected, a pro-rata refund of tuition fees paid will be made. • TAFE NSW will refund pro-rata tuition fees paid from the date of becoming an Australian permanent resident, minus a A$300 processing fee, if you have been granted permanent residency after your application and before or during a TAFE NSW course. • TAFE NSW will refund pro-rata tuition fees paid from the date of becoming a temporary resident, minus a A$300 processing fee and minus the temporary resident tuition fees where applicable, if you have been granted temporary residency after your application and before or during a TAFE NSW course. • In a package offer if you have not reached a level of English adequate to obtain a Certificate 3 in Advanced English for Further Studies, Certificate IV in English for Academic Purposes or equivalent, you will be permitted to defer commencement of your vocational course until the next available intake for that course. However, if you would like to withdraw from that course, TAFE NSW will refund tuition fees paid for the vocational course minus a A$300 processing fee. • If you obtain a deferral of the vocational component of your combined packaged course and then do not enrol in it, the refund policy relevant at the date of deferral will be applied to any fees paid. • If you obtain a suspension to your enrolment after the commencement of the semester, a pro-rata transfer of the remainder of the current semester’s tuition fee may be granted. The fee transferred, if any, will be held towards tuition for the semester that you are returning to as an international student. You will be required to pay any balance prior to resuming the studies. If you decide not to recommence studies, or you recommence the course as a temporary or permanent resident, no refund will be made. • There is no refund for days designated as Australian/NSW public holidays. • Processing fee, application/registration fee, accommodation placement fee (including guardianship arrangement) and airport pick-up fee are not refundable. The complaints procedure contained in these terms and conditions of enrolment is available to a student in the event of a grievance in relation to a claimed refund. However, this agreement and the availability of complaints and appeals processes do not remove the student’s right to take further action under Australia’s consumer protection laws or pursue other legal remedies.

documents. (The Refund Application Form is available for download from www. studyintafe.edu.au) Your refund will be processed within 4 weeks of receipt of your completed refund application if all the required documents are included.

7 INFORMATION REGARDING A DISABILITY (PART 10 OF THE APPLICATION) If you have a disability, relevant information is requested to establish whether you require the provision of additional services or facilities not required by students who do not have a disability.

You will be advised in writing of our decision. The provision of additional services or facilities should not be seen as a guarantee of successful completion of a course. TAFE NSW reserves the right to terminate a student’s enrolment if the provision of reasonable adjustment is unsuccessful and further provision of services or facilities is determined as unjustifiable hardship.

8 PROVIDER DEFAULT In the unlikely event that TAFE NSW is unable to deliver the agreed course at the agreed location, you will be offered a refund of the unused portion of the pre-paid fees.

Terms and Conditions Transfer of Fees: If you complete your English program at TAFE NSW earlier than expected and there is a further general English course available at this centre, any remaining fees will be applied to that course; or if you commence immediately a NSW government high school or TAFE NSW vocational course, the remainder of your paid fees will be transferred to that course. If you are accepted into a TAFE NSW course or NSW government high school before you complete your English course, we will transfer to that course the remainder of your paid fees as at the end of the English course session/term in which you are enrolled at the time of transfer. No fees will be transferred to other institutions or persons.

Payment of Tuition Fees: Tuition fees must be paid in full for courses of 20 weeks of less. Part payment is accepted for courses of a duration longer than 20 weeks after the first 20 weeks has been paid. TAFE NSW will not be responsible for any money paid directly to an agent. Tuition fees cover the charges for tuition and administration. Other Costs: You should allow approximately AUD15,000 - AUD18,000 per year for living expenses and accommodation and AUD150 for stationery and excursions. There is no textbook fee.

Refund Procedures: All applications for refunds and transfers must be made in writing and must contain the Confirmation of Enrolment (COE) Form, receipt for course fees and certified copies of any supporting documentation.
