FEE-HELP Opens the Door to Digital Careers at Qantm
Press Release
Qantm College announced yesterday that FEE‐HELP is now available for eligible students undertaking degree courses.
FEE‐HELP is a loan scheme which assists students to pay all or part of their tuition fees. The Australian Government pays the student's tuition fee to the College on behalf of the student, and students begin to repay their FEE‐HELP debt to the Australian Government once their income reaches a prescribed threshold. Guy Chandler, General Manager, made the following statement as part of the announcement.
"We're delighted that this new financing option is available to students, as it will allow more of them than ever to experience the best in Digital Media education. Qantm has worked hard to ensure we will be able to meet the increased demand for course places without compromising what our reputation is built on – our practical focus and specialised approach. We have always felt that the excellent outcomes we achieve for graduates is closely linked to our small classes and the individual attention we're able to give students. This will always be one of the advantages of studying with us."
The Digital Media Industry is also poised to grow, with recent Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) data showing year‐on‐year growth for the industry of around 15 percent. Applications are now open for Qantm's August and February intakes, occurring across all campuses.

programming schemes--would be eligible.
Students doing our Advanced Diploma of Screen should also qualify.

According to mates they didn't get FEE-HELP, they had to apply for a extension on their student fees because AIE were delaying payments until they heard about FEE-HELP.
