When a student has a Commonwealth Supported Places (CSPs) subsidy, other financial information of the student must be considered to report the correct amount to the government. The student’s other help loans/contributions amount must also be taken into account. This knowledge article will guide you on how to code your student’s financial information with a CSP subsidy.

CSP
A Commonwealth supported place (CSP) is a place at a university or higher education provider where the government pays part of the student’s fees. This part is a subsidy, not a loan, and the student doesn’t have to pay it back.
This subsidy does not cover the entire cost of the student’s study. The remaining portion is called the 'student contribution amount', the payment of which the students are liable for or paid upfront if the students are not HECS-HELP recipients.
A HECS-HELP loan is used to pay the 'Student Contribution Amount'.

Funding Amount (E558 HELP Loan Amount) | component of the student contribution amount that the student is deferring to the government |
Subsidy Amount | leave this field blank if you are not offering HECS-HELP discounts. If you were offering these then the field would equal the HECS-HELP discount amount |

Funding Type | set it to UPFRONT where the student is discharging the full component of their student contribution with an upfront payment. Otherwise, mark it as HECS-HELP |
Delivery Fee | shortfall amount between the unit fee normally charged for the unit and the total resourcing offered by the government (this means the calculation: unit fee Unit Fee - sum (CSP amount + student contribution) where the outcome of the formula is greater than zero) |

Workflow
NOTE:
In Take note of these fields' assumptions when it comes to the sample coding values below, it :
Delivery Fee: It is assumed that there is no shortfall amount between the unit fee normally charged for the unit and the total resourcing offered by the government. If a shortfall amount applies to your business or institution, it is coded under the Delivery Fee field (Unit Fee - sum (CSP amount + student contribution)), as mentioned in the coding guide above.
Subsidy Amount and Type: Another field that is being assumed to be left blank is the Subsidy Type given that there are no HECS-HELP discounts offered, thus leaving the Subsidy Amount’sdefault to 0. If you have any discounts offered or if the student is also a recipient of other subsidies, then you can record the details on these two fields.
