Sibling Discount

Eligibility for sibling discount

Where two or more students share a sibling relationship and are concurrently enrolled in a full fee-paying award course at Monash South Africa, application may be made for a 10% discount on the higher semester course fee(s).

To be eligible for a sibling discount, a student must be one of two or more children having one or both parents in common. This discount is not available to family members outside the sibling relationship, such as cousins. The 10% discount will be applied to the sibling with the higher semester tuition rate.

Students receiving the sibling discount are also eligible to apply for Fee Payment Extension on the grounds of financial hardship.

Application for the sibling discount

Only completed application for sibling discount forms with required supporting documentation will be considered for the 10% sibling discount.

• Application for a sibling discount must be made before the census date for that teaching period.
• When two or more siblings are enrolled concurrently in a semester, where the tuition fees are equal, the sibling discount will be applied against the student account that has been with MSA the longest.
• The completed application, together with evidence of the relationship, e.g. certified copies of birth certificates, must be forwarded to Student Services, before the census date.
• Students will be notified of the outcome of the application for a discount by email to their Monash email account.
• Applications must be made for each semester in which students wish to have the discount applied.
• Where the sibling enrolment details change during a semester, whereby both are no longer enrolled in a concurrent semester, the discount will be reversed and the liability of the remaining sibling will increase to the pre-discount level.
• If full fees have been paid prior to the approval of the sibling discount application students can apply for a refund or carry the credit forward to the next semester.
