Hecs Status on Institution transfer? (1 Viewer)

[David27]

Am wondering whether you are considered a commencing student when transfering from one Uni to another and thus are considered a new student at your new uni and are charged the new higher hecs charges?.

Generally not. Just give the uni evidence.

Someone transferring from Usyd to UC (canberra) didnt have to when the HECS went up in 1997 (??) They paid the old rates still. She done Law/Commerce.

If you transfer course in 2005, then yes you will have to pay 25% extra HECS (well at UTS at least) because when you transfer you have to fill out a new HECS form.

If you transfer mid semester then no, but if it is 2005+, then yes. :uhhuh:

No you don't have to fill out a new HECS form each semester, unless your uni is crazy. You get a new HECS statement each semester which you can pay or partially pay or defer each semester.

Your HECS form records the course you are doing, so when you change, you need a new HECS form for the new course.
