Confirmation Deposits

When a place is offered to newly enrolled students, parents will be required to lodge a $350 holding deposit. Additionally, a further $1,000 will be required by 1st October 2017 for new students commencing in 2018. This payment will then be credited to the Term 1, 2018 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 $350 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.

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.

Optional Installment Arrangements

Tuition Fees become due at the beginning of each Term. However, we do understand that this does not always match the cashflow of parents.

In 2013, St Andrews Lutheran College has implemented Direct Debit facilities for parents wanting to pay for their children’s tuition fees on a weekly, fortnightly, or monthly basis through a regular deduction from your nominated bank account, credit card, or debit card. Transactions are processed through a secure Westpac facility using the latest 128-bit SSL encrypting technology which is the banking industry standard.
