A fee scholarship is a discount that is applied to a student’s account, which reduces or offsets the fee. They may be offered to either CSP or Full Fee Paying students depending on the individual eligibility requirements.
A HECS scholarship is a particular type of discount, which is applied to the student contribution amount (aka HECS fee) that is charged to students studying in a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP). A HECS scholarship may also be referred to as a HECS scholarship.
You must be enrolled at the University of Tasmania and studying in a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) to be eligible.
