Domestic student payment options

Make sure you allow plenty of time for your payment to be processed by the due date. Your payment due date is printed on your fees invoice. If you don't pay in full by the due date, you risk losing your place in class and AUT may suspend your access to university services.

There are many ways you can pay your domestic student fees at AUT.

You can make secure online payments by credit card or internet banking by logging into arion.aut.ac.nz > Online Finance > Online Payment

Student loan and allowance application process on StudyLink website

Your student loan application will take a minimum of four weeks to be approved and paid. So, you need to apply for your student loan or student allowance at least two months before your study starts. As soon as your student loan has been approved, StudyLink will contact AUT to request details of your course of study, and AUT will confirm your details with StudyLink to allow payment of fees directly to AUT.

If your tuition fees are sponsored by an external scholarship, trust fund, employer or other third party, you should send them your fees statement/invoice.

If your sponsor would like a tax invoice in the organisation's name, they will need to provide a purchase order number or a financial guarantee letter. We will need the following information from your sponsor:

  • Company legal name
  • Company address
  • Company contact person (full name, title, email, phone number)
  • Purchase order number or financial guarantee letter

If your sponsor is unable to provide the information for the tax invoice, your fees statement/invoice will be addressed to you (student) and you are responsible for ensuring your fees are paid by the due date.
