Higher threshold for regional student HELP repayments

Summary of proposal

The proposal would amend the income threshold for repayment of the Higher Education Loan Program (HELP) debt for students studying courses at a recognised regional campus. Students who attend a campus that receives the 'regional loading' would not be required to start repaying their HELP debt on the units completed at the regional campus until they reach the 3.5 per cent threshold under the proposed legislation ($56,205 - $59,576). Repayments would then continue as per the legislation.

The proposal would have effect from 1 July 2018.
