Whether you’re a domestic or international student, you will need to make your fee payment by the due date on your financial statement.
Removal of discount for upfront payments
The Government recently passed legislation which removes the 10% discount for eligible CSP students enrolled in units of study with a census date after 1 January 2023.
We are currently working on updating our Student Financial Statements to reflect this change. If you still see a discounted amount on your statement, you should disregard this and pay the full student contribution amount.
More information can be found on the Study Assist website and in the 2023 HELP booklets.
Once your enrolment is complete, you can see your actual incurred fees by teaching period by logging in to Sydney Student and viewing your financial statement. Go to 'My finance', then 'Your finances' and select 'View financial statement'.
The statement lists each unit of study that you're enrolled in for that payment period and includes its associated:
You can see your personal fee due dates on your financial statement in Sydney Student.
You’ll need to make sure your fees are paid by the relevant due date. If you miss the due date, you will risk late payment penalties and/or cancellation of your enrolment.
You can see the full list of fee due dates on the study dates page.
We will also send email reminders when fees are due, so make sure you’re checking your University student email account.
To pay your fees, log in to Sydney Student and under the ‘My finance’ tab, select ‘Your finances’ and then ‘Payment methods’. Select your preferred payment method and follow the prompts.
We don’t recommend paying your fees using a prepaid gift card and/or prepaid debit/credit card. If you require a refund, this will be processed back to the original card. If you lose the card or it expires, you may be unable to get a refund.
