Fees and Charges

Tuition fees are payable. A deposit is due with unit registration. The balance will be invoiced during the first week of each semester. Fees are due by the fourth week of each semester, unless prior arrangements are made with the office. An additional fee applies for deferred payments.

Textbooks may be required for individual units. Intensives are payable in full prior to commencement and no refund applies after this period.

More detailed information on the current fee structure, as well as information on enrolling to study at Vose Seminary, can be located on the Enrollment Information page.

Financial Assistance

FEE Help is a Commonwealth Government loan given to eligible fee paying students to help pay part or all of their tuition fees. Students enrolled in an ACT accredited course, and who are Australian Citizens, are eligible to apply for a FEE HELP loan. Detailed information of FEE HELP can be obtained from the website www.goingtouni.gov.au or ask the office for an information booklet.
