Loan Repayments

With our Student Loan, repayments can be deferred for up to 3 years1 or you can start making regular repayments straight away.

You also have the option to make additional repayments at any time, to save on interest charged on your loan.

Interest

Calculated daily and charged monthly in arrears.

Eligibility Criteria

To be eligible for a Student Loan, you need to be a full-time University, TAFE, CAE or other registered course2 student and have successfully completed at least one year of study. You also need to be an Australian citizen or permanent resident and over 18 years of age.

Security

In many cases we may not require any security against your loan, however a Guarantor and/or motor vehicle as security will be required if you want to defer repayments.

A guarantor is someone who will officially take responsibility for the debt if you cannot repay it. The Guarantor must be a relative over 18 years, who is currently employed.

You can discuss your options with one of our friendly Member Service Consultants by calling 1300 654 822.
