Refund policy
|
Under the ESOS Act 2000, international students holding a student visa are required to maintain a full-time enrolment for the duration of the course. Refund requests from international students must be authorised by the Manager, Fees Monash University, or their nominee. To be eligible for a refund (less applicable administrative charges), an international student must withdraw from a course within the first four teaching weeks (or four weeks of a research program).
Note: where fees are paid by a party on behalf of the student, the University reserves the right to notify that party.
|
Withdrawals and deferments
| 1 |
If an international student withdraws, completes their course early, transfers to another provider, is excluded on academic grounds (and thereby fails to meet their visa condition), or defers or intermits their study or otherwise changes the duration of their course, then Monash University is obliged to inform the immigration authorities of this change or status and the student may be required to leave Australia. |
Refund of fees
| 2.1 |
The University observes the principles of the Australian National Policy on Fee Refunds established by the Australian Vice-Chancellors' Committee. This agreement does not remove the right to take further action under Australia's consumer protection laws. Provisions of the ESOS Act 2000 and the ESOS Regulations apply in the event that the University, as a registered provider, defaults on this written agreement on refunds. |
| 2.2 |
In the event that an applicant wishes to contest the decision on a request for refund, they will have access to established dispute resolution procedures, which will not circumscribe the applicants' right to pursue other legal remedies.
|
| 2.3 |
An enrolled student, who withdraws from a course for whatever reason beyond the Census date in that teaching period, shall not be eligible for a refund.
|
| 2.4 |
The funds covering the tuition fees must be clear (i.e. cheques cleared, telegraphic transfers received, etc).
|
| 2.5 |
All debts to the University must have been paid before any refund can be calculated with any outstanding amounts to be deducted from the refund.
|
| 2.6 |
The refund must be made to the same person or body from whom the payment was received on behalf of the student.
|
| 2.7 |
Refunds will be paid within 4 weeks of receiving a written claim from the student.
|
| 2.8 |
A refund will normally be made in the currency of the student's country of permanent residence and payable in that country. Exceptions include payment to another Australian educational institution, in the case of a student transferring, or a refund to a third party who had paid fees on behalf of the
student.
|
| 2.9 |
If a successful applicant receives permission to defer commencement of a course, a non-refundable deposit of A$1,000 allocated from any prepaid fees will be retained and the balance refunded. The A$1,000 retained may be offset against the commencing student fee in the appropriate year.
|
| 2.10 |
For commencing students, applications for a full or partial refund must be made in writing to the Manager, Fees Monash University, setting out the reasons for the request and accompanied by supporting documentation, as appropriate. The authority for approving a refund of fees for a commencing international student rests with the Manager, Fees Monash University, or their nominee.
|
| 2.11 |
Requests for refunds from continuing students who are enrolled should be made to the Fees Unit, Student Administration, Monash University, by completing the appropriate request for refund form.
