If paying by year: You have until the end of the VCE subject exam (If 1/2 - Then until end of school year)
If paying by term: You have until the end of the upcoming term, unless you pay for the following term
All of Novicate’s tutoring programs are designed to a high Raw 40+ level. This means they go through VCAA-assessable content at a level comprehensive and complex enough to achieve that score.
For students scoring B’s, C’s and even D’s: These programs do the hard work for you and compiles all you’ll need to boost your VCE scores. With access to a Raw 50 tutor to get feedback on your answers, you’ll definitely see a rapid improvement in your answers as long as you put in the work.
For students scoring A’s: These programs will take you from Raw 40+ standard and give you a clear structure on what a Raw 50 standard looks like in terms of depth of content understanding, how to answer questions and how to approach revising for the exam.
Once you’re assigned a tutorial class group, that will be your group for the year.
If you can't make the occasional tutorial session DO NOT WORRY
We know student lives are hectic, which is why ALL sessions will be recorded and uploaded for you to review after! And of course, you'll be able to ask any questions afterwards in the Novicate discord hub.
If you know it will be extremely difficult to attend live classes but would still like to access the VCE Training Portal and get discord support
Then you should sign-up for the silver program, specifically designed for self-paced and independent study students.
As part of the Gold or Silver program you’ll get access to the private Novicate Biology Discord. There you’ll be able to post questions and get personalised answers from 0.1% VCE Educators and other high-achieving students. It’ll be like having a tutor in your pocket whenever you need until the final exams.
The silver programs has everything that the gold does, minus the weekly live classes (and live tickets to revision programs if you purchase the comprehensive options). Here’s how to decide between the two:
Usually students who are already high-performing and self-motivated, but are simply searching for premier structured resources and support answering questions choose the silver program.
For students who need extra support, more live attention and live classes with a consistent time to study each week, the gold program is a better option.
To show our commitment to maximising your VCE performance, we’re offering a guarantee - Join any of our programs and if you don’t improve your scores, we’ll provide free 1-on-1 tutoring until you do.

You will then be allocated a 1-on-1 tutor who will work with you to create a new study plan. You will have, completely free, 30 minutes of tutoring each week until your scores improve.
You will be allowed, and even encouraged, to ask regular questions to the tutors in the Novicate discord as part of your VCE improvement process.

The Novicate 6-DAY Free Trial is an opportunity for excited parents and students to experience a Novicate Program for themselves without committing. In the trial you’ll get access to the VCE Training Portal.
To sign up, you’ll need to choose a comprehensive program and put your details down. Once you do this, you’ll get immediate access to the VCE Training Portal.
Don’t absolutely love the program? Email us (novicateacademy@gmail.com) before 6-days ends with the subject title [FREE TRIAL CANCEL - (your full name)] and you won't be charged.
Love the program and want to continue? You won’t have to do anything. After the 6-days lapses, you’ll be charged and officially enrolled in your Novicate Program.
How to make the most out of the trial? We recommend you complete at least x1 full content set (eg: watch theory lesson with theory booklet, complete questions and watch tutorial for the same topic).
It’s easy. We only offer free-trials for our comprehensive programs (Gold or Silver). You can sign-up by emailing us here - novicateacademy@gmail.com
Our super secure payment service (Stripe) asks for your payment details. This is so that if you find you love your Novicate program, you can be seamlessly officially enrolled after the 6-day trial lapses. BUT remember you can always easily cancel your trial and not enrol.
Don’t absolutely love the program? Email us (novicateacademy@gmail.com) before 6-days ends with the subject title [FREE TRIAL CANCEL - (your full name)] and you won't be charged.
We respect our students’ time and want to make sure every live zoom session we host is the best experience ever. Having uncommitted trialling students hopping in zoom sessions each week will cause disruptions. Once you’re officially enrolled, you’ll receive a warm welcome to your tutorial class!
For Novicate’s comprehensive packages, you pay the full year fee ($1500-200) in x4 smaller portions across a 6 week time frame.
Sign up = 1st payment
2 weeks after = 2nd payment
4 weeks after = 3rd payment
6 weeks after = 4th and last payment
This exists to help some families and students where paying the lump sum up front can be challenging. By paying the full year fee you get full VCE Training Portal access, a cheaper total price AND the bonus revision programs valued at $89 each.

However, we also have a VIP discord community for our tutoring enrolled students. Our tutors are much more active there and respond within a few hours. If you’re after more-involved tutoring support and our VCE Training Portal access, then we recommend enquiring about our weekly tutoring programs

Novicate’s annual Mock Day event is a perfect opportunity for students in the middle of their exam revision to test their exam performance and learn how to improve.
The Novicate Mock Day includes:
✅ Simulated mock exam conditions via zoom
✅ Exam review session after lunch: Slides with summary tables, highlighted key words per concept and more
✅ Final exam tips and tricks
✅ Take-home exam answer book
✅ The exam review will be recorded to review again afterwards
It's simple! The only difference is attending the live workshop via zoom for live ticket students vs. not for revision package students.
Of course! We're so happy to hear you want to attend more than one Novicate workshop. If you’d like to attend 3+ revision events, it’s more affordable to buy our VCE Revision “Made Easy” program which includes access to all x5 revision events for your subject.
