Record a Part Payment for FEE-HELP Deferring Unit Enrolment

This page will provide you with instructions on how to record a part payment for a FEE-HELP eligible Student

Overview

If a Student is eligible for government help study assistance, an option to defer just part of the Unit Enrolment Fee Amount to the government is possible and pay the rest of the amount upfront. You also have an option in Paradigm to check the status of the Student's loan via the Student > Course Enrolment > Units screen.

Workflow

  1. Load the Student's Unit Enrolment record where you want to defer a part of the tuition amount to FEE-HELP, see Edit a Unit Enrolment record.

  2. With the Unit Enrolment record loaded, go to the FINANCIAL INFORMATION section and update the following fields:

    • Funding Type - set this to FEE-HELP, or to any of the government funding types the student is eligible

    • Upfront Payment - Enter the amount here that the Student is paying as part of the full tuition amount

    • Payment Date - Set the payment date here.

NOTE:

If the Student is an Undergraduate the HEIMS Loan Fee will automatically calculate to 25% of the Funding Amount that is subtracted from the Upfront Payment of the Unit Fee. After the TCSI reporting requirements have been fulfilled, the Amount Received can be entered in full to pay off the unit.

  1. In the TCSI INFORMATION section, update the following field:

    • Student Status Code (E490) - make sure that it's set to reflect a (government help) FEE-HELP payment, e.g. 230

  1. Click the SAVE UNIT ENROLMENT button to apply the changes.
