If applicants submit their "Application for Assessment of Eligibility" on or after 1 November 2011, payment of Student Travel Subsidy (if applicable) to the successful student-applicants may be effected from the date of approval for application provided the applicant can pass the means test. If applicants submit their "Application for Assessment of Eligibility" at a date on or after 1 February 2012 (i.e. in the latter half of the 2011/12 school year), partial payment of Subsidy for Internet Access Charges may be made to the successful applicants provided the applicant can pass the means test. Under normal circumstances, the SFAA will not accept any "Application for Assessment of Eligibility" submitted on or after 1 March 2012. The SFAA may give special consideration to cases with exceptional circumstances. If applicants need to apply for student financial assistance on or after 1 March 2012 for their children attending course that commences during the period from 1 March 2012 to 31 May 2012, they should approach relevant institutions for details of the application procedures and deadlines.
