I have been scouring the internet for information on this topic as of late as I am starting my CPL course early next year and dont want to miss out on this opportunity.
I emailed many flight schools around sydney and so far only one has replied with this :
" Hi,
Thanks for your enquiry.
At the moment we are expecting to offer VET FEE HELP to our students by February/March 2009.
Once this is approved all of our Diploma courses are applicable for VET FEE HELP for Australian students.
I hope you find this information useful. "
So I will be holding out for a little while longer before I start I guess.
The loan is $81600 and repayment doesnt begin until you are earning $41594 in the 08-09 period (taken from
Student and Parent Information)
I think its worth doing the diploma or advanced diploma to qualify for the loan if you are finding it difficult to come up with the funds!
