higher level VET qualifications that address industry needs and create better opportunities for
employment.
Students can only access VET Student Loans for some courses. Attachment A lists all eligible
courses and the applicable maximum loan amount a student can access.

Students will not be able to access VET Student Loans for courses not on the eligible
course list. For these courses, students will need to pay for the course themselves or find
alterative financing.
Establishing loan caps on courses does not prevent approved VET Student Loan
providers from setting tuition fees above the cap. Rather, it sets a ceiling on the
maximum loan amount the government is willing to provide a student for a specific
course.
If a student wishes to undertake an eligible course at an approved VET Student Loan
provider that charges above the allocated loan cap, the student will need to pay for the
difference according to the providers billing period.
The course list will be updated periodically. Further details of this process will be released
before the commencement of the new program.
The course list will be an instrument under the new VET Student Loans legislation. The
list will come into effect once the legislation is passed and the list is tabled in Parliament.

VET Student Loans program. It is not inclusive of all requirements of the new program.
Implementation of VET Student Loans from 1 January 2017 is pending the passage of the VET
Student Loans Bill 2016 through parliament.
