Payment Options
FEE-HELP
FEE-HELP is available for PLT applicants who are Australian citizens or on a permanent humanitarian visa. If you are an overseas practitioner on a permanent visa for the purposes of bridging study, then you aren’t eligible for FEE-HELP for PLT.
For eligible students, the tuition fee can be fully or partially covered by FEE-HELP. If you’re wishing to access FEE-HELP, please select FEE-HELP as your funding option when completing the online enrolment form.You’ll receive an Electronic Commonwealth Assistance Form (eCAF) via email at least one month prior to starting your PLT course. The email will contain information on how to complete your eCAF.
Students without access to FEE-HELP
Fees for non-FEE-HELP applicants are due two weeks before the start of your course. If you expect to have difficulty in paying your PLT fees, we can help. Contact the Director of PLT to discuss your individual situation. You can email them here.
Students that don’t have access to FEE-HELP may apply to pay the course fee by instalments. To do this, you’ll need to apply for permission from the Director of PLT no later than two weeks before the start of the course (the enrolment date).
Payments can be made by direct deposit, bank cheque/money order or credit card.

2023 Census Dates
The Census Date is the final day to withdraw from a PLT course before your fees are due. The Census Date applies to both FEE-HELP and non-FEE-HELP applicants.

Non-FEE-HELP Student: Withdrawing after the Census Date means the full tuition fee is due. Special circumstances may apply in some cases. When applicable, we will follow a procedure similar to that for FEE-HELP students.
FEE-HELP Student: Withdrawal after the Census Date means the full tuition fee is debited from your FEE-HELP balance. Essentially, the full debt becomes owed to the Australian Government and is payable through the Australian Taxation Office. ‘Special circumstances’ as defined by the Higher Education Support Act 2003 (Cth) may apply in limited cases. For special circumstances to apply, Leo Cussen Centre for Law must be satisfied that such circumstances were (a) beyond your control and (b) did not make their full impact until or after the Census Date and (c) were such that they made it impracticable for you to complete your study requirements.
