Discounts & Vouchers
Discounts
All discounted prices listed in our course catalogue or on the website are calculated from the full fee of the course or event into which you are enrolling. If you are eligible for a discount, you cannot combine this with additional discounts; whichever entitles you to the lowest discounted price will apply. Applications for a reduction of fees on the grounds of hardship will be considered. These need to be made in writing to the Executive Director and will be treated in strict confidence.
If you enrol into a course without claiming an eligible discount at the time of enrolment, you will not be able to request a reimbursement or have it retroactively applied to your enrolment.
WEA Sydney may occasionally provide a code which entitles you to receive a discount for eligible courses. These need to be added each time you enrol by typing in the case-sensitive code and then pressing the Add Code button for it to apply. To add eligible discounts to your student account when enrolling, please refer to our How to Enrol page.
Studying with a friend is always more fun, and you both save! If you register together in one of our courses and one of you is a current WEA Sydney Member, you’ll each receive 20% off the full fee if you mention the code FRIEND20. If neither of you has a membership, but one of you is new to WEA Sydney, you’ll each receive 10% off the full fee if you mention the code FRIEND10.
Note: Both enrolments must be processed together at the same time either in person or via phone (02) 9264 2781. Your friend must be brand new to WEA Sydney (i.e., has never previously enrolled in a WEA course).
You are eligible for a 5% discount if you have one of the following cards issued by Services Australia (Centrelink).
This discount does not apply to Vocational Training courses, Discussion Group courses, courses held in association with external organisations or otherwise stated. Please contact us with proof of your concession so we can add this to your student record before you enrol.
RAHS Members are eligible for a 10% discount on all courses held by the Royal Australian Historical Society only. Please contact us to have this added to your student record before you enrol (unless added previously). To become a RAHS Member, visit their website at https://www.rahs.org.au/
WEA Members are eligible for a 10% discount if they have a current 1 Year or 3 Year Membership.

Vouchers
WEA Sydney vouchers can be used as either full or partial payment for courses and events listed in our course catalogue or on the website. There are no restrictions on how many vouchers you can use to pay for your enrolment. When enrolling in-person or over the phone, let us know that you have a voucher you wish to use and we will apply it to your enrolment. If enrolling on the website you will need to add in the case-sensitive code on the Payment page and press Apply Code for it to apply.
