Fee Statements
In January of each school year parents will be able to view their new school fee statement via the Parent Lounge. A statement will also be emailed at the start of each term. Fee statements will include tuition and boarding fees, and any compulsory levies as per the fees schedule. These fees will be billed per term.
Any additional charges incurred during the year by your son(s), such as charges for lost library books, private tuition and music tuition, will be added to your school fees account during the school year. This may be subject to change at the discretion of the College. However, parents will be notified in advance of any changes. Additional fees and charges are due and payable when incurred.
Payment Terms
It is the intention of the College Board to set fees once each year; however, the College reserves the right to revise fees at any time.
The College charges fees per term, issuing term fee statements (international students are billed annually). Accounts must be paid in full within seven days of the statement being issued, unless a direct debit installment arrangement is entered into or prior arrangement has been made with the College.
Parents are reminded that all fee concessions are dependent upon the fees being paid by the due date. Concessions may be withdrawn if this condition is not met. Concessions include scholarships and bursaries.
To assist parents with budgeting, Nudgee College offers several payment options via direct debit from a nominated bank account (no fees) or credit card. (fees apply). This direct debit can be set up directly via the Parent Lounge. Refer to the Fee Statement Handbook for further information. This form of payment is the College’s preferred payment method and options include:
A Fee Calculation Worksheet is available at the top of this web page, which will help parents calculate their total fees payable from the above direct debit options.
The College recognises that these payment arrangements may not suit families whose income is seasonal (especially families on the land or families in small/sole operator businesses). New parents to the College or existing parents who believe the fee payment arrangements will be incompatible with their family income cycle should contact the College’s Finance Office on (07) 3865 0404 or fees@nudgee.qld.edu.au to discuss alternative fee payment arrangements. It is imperative that these arrangements are in place prior to your son's commencement.
Methods of Payment
The College’s preferred method of payment is direct debit. We also encourage parents who do not have a direct debit payment method option in place to pay school fees via the Parent Lounge.
Other forms of payment are:
Nudgee College Financial Assistance
The College also requests that all families contact the Finance Credit Manager if requiring any payment assistance. Parents unable to make payments prior to the due dates must make arrangements with the Finance Credit Manager prior to the commencement of each term. Whilst the College is supportive of families in difficult financial circumstances, it is still an expectation that families will make every effort to pay the full fees and that families respond to all communications in this regard.
Edstart - School Fee Payment Plan
Parents wishing to pay school fees by instalments can apply for an Edstart payment plan. You can spread your fees evenly across the school year or reduce your repayment amount with an extended plan over multiple years, up to five years after graduation.
Edstart will pay your fees to the College when they are due and you can make weekly, fortnightly or monthly repayments. You can adjust your plan or cancel at any time with no additional charges.
