Student Loans from the University of Melbourne can be repaid by either BPay, rent card, cheque or cash.
Bpay 
Bpay is the preferred method of repayment and students usually find this more convenient than using a rent card. Students are able to use Bpay via phone or internet banking. Contact your bank if you require further details about using Bpay. Repayments can be made from your cheque or savings account but not via credit card. Your biller code and and account number will be found on the invoice issued to you when you receive your cheque. The biller code and account numbers will be specific to your loan and cannot be used for any other payments to the University.
Rentcard
A Rentcard can can be used to repay your Student Loan at any Australia Post office. Each Rentcard has its own individual identification code. The card should be returned once you have submitted your final payment.
You can contact the Loans Repayment Officer if you require a Rentcard to be mailed to you, or you can collect one from the front counter at Student Financial Aid on the Parkville campus.
Rentcards should be returned once your final payment has been made.
Cheques
When paying by cheque, make the cheque payable to the University of Melbourne.
Cheques can be mailed to the Student Loans Office, 258 Queensberry Street, University of Melbourne VIC 3010.
Please include your name and student number on the reverse side of the cheque.
