I feel like I am being cheated on?

Hello to the ones reading.
So I have done my cert III. Just want to study further. So I recently tried applying for the course Diploma of early childhood education and care. I am from Melbourne.
End of February, I applied the course in Sage Institute of Childcare. But before my course started, the institute shut down. I read many posts on Facebook, articles and reviews on google for this institute. Most people kept saying they are cheaters, money hunger. Etc. I was lucky I didn't pay for my course...cause they told me that they will call me a week before my course starts (17th or 27th March 2017 can't remember proper date) but I kept waiting for their call. I finally decided to call them myself. It kept going to the message bank. And I finically found out that it shut down.
Next, I tried searching for another institute to do my course at. I found Selmar's Institute. But they were asking for just $99 .. which I found impossible. So I never applied for it.
Today, I called up career's austrlia. That is where my sister studies her nursing course. So I am happy with that one. But...only problem is that I am scared. They said the course costs $15490. I don't know how true this is. But they were saying that I can apply for VET FEE HELP which will over $10000 and I'll be left with $5000 to pay off. Also they told me if I applied for a scholarship, I would get $3000 reduced from the remaining $5000. So I'll left with $2490. And that my course starts on 19th April I think and I'll have to start paying the $2490 from May. But this course is an online course.. I have to do this at home only... no in classes.
Am I on the correct path? Or does this sound very suspicious?
I feel like I am being cheated on.
Most area I heard this course costs about $9000.
I am very very scared... I do not want to pay this much and lose it in the end.
Anyone have an idea if this is the way it works or is it wrong? .. most of all. When career's austrlia called me back, my True Caller App on my iPhone told me it's a 'SPAM' calling me. But I still answered and it was careers austrlia. After I got off the phone with them, I went on my true caller app and checked the number, it has been reported as spam from 50 people. And my whole screen went red. It totally scared me.
I am getting very stressed. I don't know what to do. I feel like I am getting cheated on. Am I overreacting or would you be the same?
I don't know what to do...
I really thought of doing my diploma at the institute I did my cert III at. But they don't do government funding anymore. I would have to pay $9000 within 12 months. Which is not possible for me at the moment.
I want to cry...
