International student tuition fees

The tuition fees you’ll pay will depend on the course you choose and the year you start studying with us. This guide explains how they work.

How to understand these tuition fees

This page shows the tuition fees you’re likely to pay as an international student for your first year of study.

Important – read this information first:

  • The tuition fees on this page are based on a full-time enrolment of 48 credit points per year. (This is known as 1 EFTSL, or equivalent full-time student load.)
  • Full-time courses with fewer than 48 credit points have lower tuition fees. That’s because the fees are based on total credit points for a course. For example, a graduate certificate has 24 credit points and therefore has lower tuition fees than a master’s degree, which has 48.
  • The fees are only for the year shown. They change each year as a result of annual reviews and other factors.
  • In some cases we display the fees as a range, because they’re different for each course.
