Condition SAC086: AMFM policy scope

Type:

Rule or condition

The Annual Maximum Fees Movement (AMFM) policy applies to fees and course costs that tertiary education organisations (TEOs) receiving Student Achievement Component (SAC) funding charge domestic students enrolled in courses leading to a short award, certificate, diploma, undergraduate degree, or postgraduate qualification. The policy also applies to organisations funded by a grant under section 321 of the Education Act 1989.

TEOs:

• must not set, for any courses not exempted from the policy, fee/course costs that exceed the maximum limits determined by applying the AMFM policy
• must not charge any domestic student enrolled in any course a fee higher than the benchmark domestic fee applicable to that course.

Under the AMFM policy, TEOs must not charge course fees to Youth Guarantee students.

The AMFM policy applies at the course level.
