Tuition fees


How much you pay for tuition fees depends on whether you are assessed as a home or overseas student.

All new students will be required to complete a fee status assessment, and from this information the University will determine if home or overseas fees are payable.

Students disputing their overseas status will be given an opportunity to provide evidence to support their claim for home fees.

Students disputing fee status will be unable to enrol on any programme unless 50% of the total overseas fee for the year is paid on or before enrolment.
