Financial assistance - Student loans
Student Loans
The University, through the Division of Student Life, provides interest free student loans to students who are in financial need and are progressing satisfactorily with their studies.
The application must be completed prior to making an appointment and attending an interview with a Student Loan Officer at the Division of Student Life reception on all campuses.
Please note: where the loan is not repaid within the agreed time frame, debt recovery processes are triggered and interest on the outstanding amount will be charged. Information about penalties for non-compliance.
Emergency Loans for Fees
The purpose of the Fund is to enable currently enrolled full fee paying Deakin University students, residing and studying in Australia and who are facing proven financial hardship through changes in circumstances outside their control, to continue their studies.
The Emergency Fund is to cover only payment of tuition fees (not including retained fees). It is not to cover personal living expenses.
Full fee paying students are also eligible to apply for a loan for living expenses from the Deakin University Student Loan Fund available by contacting the Division of Student Life.
