StudyAssist Portal: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Access a central hub for information on government loans and financial support options available to tertiary students in Australia.

The StudyAssist Portal serves as a centralized information hub designed to help students understand the various government loans and support systems available to them.

Who it's for

This service is intended for all tertiary students. Whether you are currently enrolled in a course or looking into future study options, the portal provides the necessary information to help you navigate your academic journey.

What you get

The portal provides a single, centralized location to find information regarding government loans and various forms of financial support. This resource is designed to help you understand the different ways the government can assist with the costs associated with higher education, helping you manage tuition and other academic expenses more effectively.

What it costs you

Accessing this resource is completely free. You do not need to pay a fee to use the portal to research your options or understand the different support systems available to you.

The catch to know

Because there are several different types of financial assistance available, it is very easy to get them confused. The most common mistake students make is confusing HECS-HELP with OS-HELP. It is important to read the specific details for each program to ensure you understand exactly which type of support you are looking at and how each one works.
