Hardship and special circumstances

If you are experiencing financial difficulty you may be eligible for assistance from the financial assistance service. There may be options available to assist you to continue your studies.

Extension of time to pay

UTS does not have the authority to grant extensions for student contribution charge payments.

For other fees types, if you wish to apply for an extension on the basis of exceptional circumstances, your applications must be submitted to Ask UTS, stating:

• the reasons why payment cannot be made, and
• the duration of the extension sought.

Only limited extensions are available due to government reporting requirements.

In exceptional circumstances and subject to the provisions of legal and regulatory requirements the Registrar, or a member of staff designated by the Registrar, may waive liability for payment by a student of a particular fee or charge.
