    VET Student Loans (VSL)

    This course may be eligible for a VET Student Loan — a Commonwealth income-contingent loan that lets you defer some or all of your course fees, similar to HECS-HELP. VSL applies to eligible Diploma-level and above courses only. Loan caps and eligibility depend on your citizenship/residency status and the specific course. Confirm your eligibility and loan cap directly with the provider before enrolling.

    Fee-Free TAFE

    This course is part of the Fee-Free TAFE initiative, a joint Commonwealth–state program that removes or reduces student fees for a set number of places in priority courses and skill sets. Places are limited and allocated by the provider, so availability isn't guaranteed even where a course is listed. Contact the provider to confirm a fee-free place is currently available to you.

    Skills First (Victoria)

    This course (or skill set) is subsidised under the Victorian Government's Skills First program. Subsidised places are capped per calendar year and eligibility depends on your residency, age and prior-qualification history. The fee shown reflects the Skills First subsidised rate where known — confirm your eligibility and final fee with the provider.
