As a Commonwealth assisted student, you will be allocated a Commonwealth Higher Education Student Support Number (CHESSN).
The CHESSN is a unique identifier that will remain with you. It will help higher education providers and the Australian Government to provide information to you about your FEE-HELP assistance, and some other forms of Commonwealth assistance for higher education.
You can use your CHESSN to check the Commonwealth assistance you have received since 1 January 2005, including your FEE-HELP loan balance by accessing myUniAssist on the Going to Uni website (see How can I find out my FEE-HELP balance?).
