TAFEWA students are not included in the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) and hence do not have to pay HECS.
You must pay all of your fees at time of enrolment, you are not officially enrolled with CYOC until such time as your fees are paid.
TAFEWA fees are paid by the semester at the time of enrolment and the total charge is made up of three types of fees, the enrolment tuition fee, the materials (resource) fee and the handling fee.
These three components are explained below:
1. Enrolment Tuition Fees
The TAFEWA enrolment tuition fees apply to all vocational award courses/qualifications including apprenticeships and traineeships and vary from course to course. The fees are calculated based on the nominal hours assigned to each unit of competency that you enrol into.

However, a deposit of $50 is required to secure your enrolment and your payment plan can only consist of a maximum of 4 payments. Books cannot be paid for by means of a payment plan.
TAFE colleges may refuse admission to students who have defaulted on the payment of fees and charges and are subsequently classed as Debtors to the College and students should be aware that if any fees and charges owing are not paid in full, admission will be refused |
