Term Based Prompt Payment Discount

A $30 prompt payment discount per term will be applied to parent accounts with a nil balance (or on balances in credit) before the due date on the Fee Statement. (Note: those families attracting the Annual Discount do not also attract this $30 prompt payment discount.)

Due Dates

Fees will be invoiced each term and are payable on the due date listed on the Statements which will be sent by email. Alternative payment agreements are able to be made with the College Business Manager, Mr Stephen Cooke.

Financial Assistance

Limited short–term financial assistance may be available to families who are experiencing genuine financial difficulty. Parents can submit an application for a means tested fee concession which will be treated in the strictest confidence.

Collections Policy

The College has a staged process to collect outstanding accounts. While every attempt will be made to come to a suitable payment plan, on-going fee arrears will lead to formal recovery proceedings. The cost incurred by the College for undertaking formal debt recovery proceedings will be added to the account and is fully recoverable.

Confirmation Deposits

When a place is offered to newly enrolled students, parents will be required to lodge a $250 holding deposit and $250 for Lifetime Membership of the Alumni Association. Additionally, a further $1,000 will be required by 1st October 2019 for new students commencing in 2020. This payment will then be credited to the Term 1, 2020 account for students who commence, otherwise it will be forfeited. Payment of these fees confirm placement for the student.

Should the confirmation deposit be paid and the student’s enrolment is cancelled prior to entering the College, the deposit will be forfeited by parents. In exceptional circumstances, where the parents can demonstrate to the Principal that factors quite outside their control led to the cancellation, they may apply for a refund of the deposit. However any refund, which will be made only in exceptional circumstances, is entirely at the discretion of the Principal.

Once the student has commenced at the College, the holding deposit of $250 will be held until 90 days after the family has left the College, at which time it will be refunded on request, less any outstanding monies owed to the College.

Notice Period

If a student is to leave the College before Graduation, it is a condition of enrolment that parents/guardians must give a full term’s notice in writing to the Principal. This written notice must be received no later than the commencement of the last term of attendance.

If this notice is not given in time, parents/guardians agree to pay one term’s full fees in addition to the forfeiture of the enrolment deposit. This amount is a genuine pre-estimate of the loss the College would suffer as a result of the lack of notice.
