You do not need to cancel your Request for FEE-HELP assistance form if you decide to pay your tuition fee up-front. You will only incur a debt for a unit or course of study if, on the census date, you:
- are still enrolled in the unit or course for which you have completed a Request for FEE-HELP assistance form (that is, you have not withdrawn your enrolment in all of your units); and
- have not paid the full amount of your tuition fee for a unit of study; and
- your FEE-HELP balance is greater than zero.
You are able to cancel your Request for FEE-HELP assistance form at any time, if you choose to do so. You must do this in writing to your higher education provider. For example, you may wish to cancel your Request for FEE-HELP assistance form if your provider allows you to make up-front payments of your tuition fees after the census date.
Note that Open Universities Australia students must cancel their Request for FEE-HELP assistance Open Universities Australia form in writing to Open Universities Australia.
If you have not paid your tuition fees for a unit of study and you wish to ensure that you do not obtain FEE-HELP for that unit, you must cancel any Request for FEE-HELP assistance form that covers the unit on or before the census date for that unit.
