Course fees for domestic students
What you need to know
The fees you pay and the assistance available to you depends on whether you have a Commonwealth supported place (CSP) or a fee-paying place.
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is a higher education place available to domestic students for which the University receives some government funding. Students enrolled in these places are only required to contribute to part of the cost of their course. This is referred to as the 'student contribution'.
A fee-paying place is one for which the university does not receive any government funding. Students enrolled in these places contribute the full cost of their course.
Other fees and charges
Student Services and Amenities Fee applies to all domestic students (except Research) to raise money for student services and facilities. Other fees and charges apply for some academic services.
