titleHow Students with EXEMPT (E490) Student Status Codes are coded in Paradigm

EXEMPT (E490) Student Status Codes

A student with an EXEMPT Status Code (E490) are those with values coded as 250, 260, 261, 262, 270, 271, 331, 341, see https://www.tcsisupport.gov.au/element/490 for more details. They are students who are contribution-exempt, non-overseas tuition fee-exempt, or Research Training Program (RTP) students.

Else, the Funding Amount (E558) is calculated by the Unit Fee (E384) amount(minus) Upfront Payment (E381) amount.

titleGuide in coding recoding CSP-related fields in Paradigm

Coding CSP Recipients in Paradigm Guide

Note

BE ADVISED:

Take note of the following coding advice to avoid getting any TCSI related errors in your CSP records:

  • CSP students cannot have unit fees deferred to the government that have a cents component. The fee needs to be rounded to whole dollars.

  • The Field of Education (E461) needs to be correctly set on the base course, base unit and scheduled unit levels to a category supported by CSP funding, see TCSI for HE for the fields location in Paradigm.

NOTE:

All the fields in Paradigm and their equivalent TCSI Element numbers mentioned and discussed below are found in each unit enrolment record under the FINANCIAL INFORMATION and HEIMS INFORMATION sections, except for the Maximum student contribution code (E392) which can be found under the Course Enrolment details, see TCSI for HE for the fields location in Paradigm.
