Discounts and Financial Assistance

Early Payment Discount

An 8% discount is available if full payment is made by close of business on the first Friday of Term 1. The discount is calculated on the value of Tuition Fees less Sibling Discounts (if applicable) and all previous outstanding amounts must be paid. The Capital Development Levy and Stationery charge (R-4) are not subject to this discount and this discount does not apply to any fee remissions (e.g. Scholarship).

Scholarship Program

Investigator College celebrates the opportunity to assist students to become their best self. Accordingly, the College offers a range of Scholarships each year to ensure that circumstance does not inhibit promising students by restricting access to the innovative and well-resourced facilities available to students of Investigator College.
