EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-290479) of Golub Capital Private Credit Fund (the “Registration Statement”) is being filed pursuant to Rule 462(d) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), solely for the purpose of filing exhibits to the Registration Statement. Accordingly, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 consists only of a facing page, this explanatory note and Part C of the Registration Statement setting forth the exhibits to the Registration Statement. This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 does not modify any other part of the Registration Statement. Pursuant to Rule 462(d) under the Securities Act, this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 shall become effective immediately upon filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The contents of the Registration Statement are hereby incorporated by reference.

Pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act, the prospectus included in the Registration Statement is a combined prospectus that relates to (i) the Registration Statement (File No. 333-272674), dated June 15, 2023, as amended, previously filed by the Registrant on Form N-2 (the “Prior Registration Statement”), and (ii) the Registration Statement as described above. This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 also constitutes a Post-Effective Amendment to the Prior Registration Statement, and such Post-Effective Amendment shall become effective concurrently with the effectiveness of this Amendment.

Other Information

The following financial statements of Golub Capital Private Credit Fund are included in Part A of this Registration Statement.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(2) Exhibits

Item 26. Marketing Arrangements

The information contained under the heading “Plan of Distribution” in this Registration Statement is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 27. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution

* Amounts are estimates.

All of the expenses set forth above shall be borne by the Registrant.

Item 28. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control

None.

Item 29. Number of Holders of Securities

The following table sets forth the number of record holders of the Registrant’s Common Shares at August 29, 2025.

Item 30. Indemnification

The information contained under the heading “Description of our Shares.” “Our Investment Adviser and Administrator” and “Plan of Distribution—Indemnification” in this Registration Statement is incorporated herein by reference.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of an action suit or proceeding) is asserted by a trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is again public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Prior to offering its shares to the public, the Registrant expects to obtain liability insurance for the benefit of its trustees and officers (other than with respect to claims resulting from the willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her office) on a claims-made basis.

Item 31. Business and Other Connections of the Manager

A description of any other business, profession, vocation or employment of a substantial nature in which the Investment Adviser, and each managing director, director or executive officer of the Investment Adviser, is or has been during the past two fiscal years, engaged in for his or her own account or in the capacity of director, officer, employee, partner or trustee, is set forth in Part A of this Registration Statement in the section entitled “Portfolio Management” or is otherwise incorporated by reference. Additional information regarding the Investment Adviser and its officers and directors is set forth in its Form ADV, as filed with the SEC (SEC File No. 801-70448), and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 32. Location of Accounts and Records

Item 33. Management Services
