Hi all,
I have a question! Can't seem to find this info anywhere...
What is the situation with postgrad med fees? Is it covered by HECS? I have 4 years worth of HECS debt already.... does HECS run out after a number of years? I seem to remember hearing that it does.
Thanks!!! =D |

It is covered under HELP scheme i think. There is no limit, and over four years its about 32 000 dollars.
Hope that helps |

| Yeah its not bad.. but about the same rate as the most expensive undergrad degree. Just that admission is the truly hard part! |

| You usually get seven years full-time years of HECS, but for a graduate medical degree, you can go over that. |
