The College provides sibling discounts on tuition and boarding fees for eligible families.
The applicable discounts are:

• Two brothers attending at the same time - 10% for the second student
• Three brothers attending at the same time - 10% for the second student and 30% for the third student 
• Four brothers attending at the same time - 10% for the second student, 30% for the third student and 50% for the fourth student

To qualify, a student must be the second or subsequent child attending the College concurrently, with one or both parents in common. The discount is limited to eligible sibling relationships and does not extend to other family relationships, including step-brothers who do not meet the stated eligibility requirements.

Please note that fee concessions and discounts are non-cumulative; if a student qualifies for more than one concession (such as an academic Dux award alongside a sibling discount), the deductions will not combine, and only the single larger concession will be applied. For clarification regarding eligibility or the application of a sibling discount, please contact the College Finance Team.

We invite all parents to download and use our Family Budget Calculator before starting their applications.

Parents who elect to prepay tuition and boarding fees for future years may benefit from locking in the applicable tuition and boarding fee rates for those years. To qualify, the full tuition and boarding fees for both the current and relevant future years must be paid by 31 January of the initial year.

The following conditions apply:

• Initial year
  Tuition and boarding fees for the initial year are charged at the standard rates applicable to that year.

• Subsequent years
  Where the full tuition and boarding fees for subsequent years are paid in advance by 31 January of the initial year, those fees remain fixed at the rates applicable in the initial year, notwithstanding subsequent annual fee increases.

• Additional charges
  The prepayment benefit applies exclusively to tuition and boarding fees paid in advance. Compulsory additional charges, including book hire, camps, insurance, the Master Plan Levy, student ID cards and other miscellaneous fees, are charged at the rates applicable in each respective year. 

Parents interested in taking advantage of this arrangement should contact the College Finance Team to discuss the applicable requirements and payment arrangements.

Australian Federal and State Governments provide a range of allowances and assistance that may be available to eligible boarding families. Eligibility criteria, application requirements and payment arrangements vary depending on the particular programme and the family's circumstances.

For further information, please refer to the Australian Boarding Schools Association's guide to government assistance below.

Edstart is an independent provider offering alternative arrangements for managing school fee payments. These arrangements may interest families who want to consolidate education expenses across multiple children or schools, or extend repayments beyond the normal school year.

Depending on the product and eligibility requirements, Edstart may allow families to spread payments across the school year or extend repayments for a longer period, potentially beyond a student's graduation.

Under an Edstart arrangement, the provider pays the College's fees when they fall due, while parents repay Edstart according to their agreed plan. Repayment options and conditions depend on the arrangement selected. Families should review the provider's current fees, charges, eligibility criteria and contractual terms before proceeding.

The College's Parent Portal payment scheduling facility remains available for families who wish to arrange regular payments directly to their school fee account.
