CSSL 2026 Information
What is CSSL?
CSSL, also referred to as the Compulsory Student Services Levy, is a fee to help fund key services to assist student success and overall wellbeing while studying at Yoobee Colleges.
Elite School of Beauty & Spa is one of the trading names for the registered PTE Yoobee Colleges. Your enrolment is with Yoobee Colleges Ltd and your qualification is issued by Yoobee Colleges.
All colleges registered under the Yoobee Colleges EDUMIS number (9324) will apply the same CSSL and provide the prescribed offering.
How much is it?
In 2026, the compulsory student services levy is as follows:
On-campus and Blended delivery:
$410 (GST inclusive) per student for 80 to 120 credit programmes
$205 (GST inclusive) for programmes up to 60 credits
On-line delivery:
$205 (GST inclusive) per student for 80 to 120 credit programmes
$102.50 (GST inclusive) for programmes up to 60 credits
Domestic students can borrow the amount as part of their student loan.
Setting the 2026 CSSL – Student Consultation
The CSSL is set in consultation with students via Student Representatives. As a result of student feedback, Careers Information and Guidance has been added to the services funded in 2026.
Why is this important to me?
As part of the Ministry of Education’s direction, institutions are required to report on how fees are charged and spent. Institutions must involve students, or their representatives, when deciding on the following:
Maximum amount students pay
Types of services delivered
Procurement of these services
Method for authorising expenditure on these services.
Student services the CSSL contributes to:
Providing non-academic counselling, wellbeing and pastoral care services.
Providing student-led sports, recreation and cultural activities for students that foster social connection and community engagement.
Providing a dedicated resource to assist students with any specific learning needs they may have, to ensure they are successful in their studies.
Supporting students to secure internships and transition into post-study employment.
