INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
Clause 7.3 of the RTO standards for CRICOS students
Where the RTO requires, either directly or through a third party, a prospective or current learner to prepay fees more than a total of $1500 (being the threshold prepaid fee amount), the RTO must meet the requirements set out in the Requirements for Fee Protection
The requirement to protect prepaid fees by students includes all students whether resident in Australia or overseas. RTOs registered on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for Overseas Students (CRICOS) must satisfy both the requirements of this clause and of the Tuition Protection Service (TPS) under the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 (ESOS Act). The TPS requires that not more than 50 per cent of the fees for an overseas student be prepaid, unless the student chooses to pay more. This applies even if 50 per cent of the course fees would be less than the threshold prepaid fee amount of $1500.
