HECS-HELP
4. Upfront payments
From 1 January 2023, you'll no longer receive a 10% discount when you make an upfront payment of $500 or more on your HECS-HELP loan.
You are welcome to make a full or partial upfront payment of your student contributions.
Payments are due by the due date displayed under 'Financial' in mySI-net.
To pay the full amount, first log in to mySI-net, then:
- Go to 'Financials'.
- Go to 'HECS-HELP eCAF' and choose the 'upfront payment' option.
- Follow the steps and submit.
If you're paying the full amount upfront, we encourage you to also submit your tax file number as a safety net.
Providing your tax file number will ensure your enrolment isn't cancelled if you forget – or you're unable – to pay your student contributions upfront in the future.
The tax file number will ensure that any outstanding student contributions are automatically paid by a HECS-HELP loan.
To make a partial payment, first log in to mySI-net then:
- Go to 'Financials'.
- Go to 'Pay my fees now' in the left-hand side menu.
- Enter the amount you wish to pay.
- Follow the steps and submit.
