The automatic payment option has been designed for those who will be paying their accommodation using Student Loan with WINZ.

The maximum amount paid by WINZ in most cases is $150 per week for the length of your course, with WINZ paying you weekly from the date your course starts. You then pay this money to us from your bank account by way of a weekly automatic payment.

It can sometimes take up to a month for WINZ to begin your payments; you need to have enough money in your account to cover your fees until the WINZ payments start.

YOU will need to apply to WINZ to find out if you are eligible for a Student Loan/Allowance. REMEMBER that even if you are eligible WINZ WILL NOT PAY the deposit or the initial lump sum ** - you will have to find this yourself. You should consider this carefully before applying for or accepting a place at City College.

The initial payment of **$5,495.00 is made for 3 reasons

1. To secure your place at City College.
2. To make up the shortfall, which occurs since the maximum amount paid by WINZ ($150 p/wk) does not cover the total College fees.
3. Includes the $175 Student Club fee.
