DOMESTIC STUDENTS

VET FEE-HELP

ACA’s Advanced Diploma of Performing Arts, (Acting) is available through VET FEE-HELP. VET FEE-HELP is a loan scheme for the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector that is part of the Higher Education Loan Program (HELP).  VET FEE-HELP assists eligible students undertaking certain VET courses of study (diploma, advanced diploma, graduate certificate and graduate diploma courses). 

It allows students to borrow funds up to their FEE-HELP limit to help pay for all or part of their tuition fees.  Students who access VET FEE-HELP assistance will have a loan with the Australian Government who will, on the student’s behalf, pay their tuition fees to their approved VET provider.

Non VET FEE-HELP

Students not eligible for VET FEE-HELP - or choose not to request it - are referred to as Non VET FEE-HELP students at ACA. The total cost for the course is the same for Non VET FEE-HELP students as VET FEE-HELP students. Non VET FEE-HELP students follow the same Schedule of VET Tuition Fees and Census Dates as VET FEE-HELP students, meaning they are liable for the full fee per Unit of Study once the census date has passed for each Unit of Study. ACA offers a two installment payment option per Unit of Study to Non VET FEE-HELP students, dates which are confirmed upon enrolment.

Please see the Schedule of VET Tuition Fees and Census Dates table at the top of the page.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

International student fees are the same as domestic students. ACA does not have CRICOS and cannot assist a student in gaining a visa for the course. A visa for the duration of the course must be obtained independent of ACA for enrolment.
