Most domestic students commencing in an undergraduate (Bachelor) program will be eligible for a Commonwealth supported place (CSP). CSPs are also available in some postgraduate coursework programs. Students who are not eligible for a CSP will be offered a fee-paying place.

Students who are no longer eligible for Commonwealth assistance for their current program will be provided with advice on alternative options for continuing with their studies.

Students who do not demonstrate an appropriate level of engagement in their studies, may be referred to the Department of Education, Skills and Employment as a non-genuine student.

The above eligibility requirements apply to all Commonwealth assisted students enrolled in undergraduate, postgraduate and pathway programs.

Domestic students in fee-paying places do not receive a Government subsidy and are responsible for the full cost of their studies. Domestic tuition fees vary depending on the subject area of each course. Eligible students in a fee paying place may defer payment of their tuition fees using the Higher Education Loan Program (HELP). 

Domestic tuition fees are set by the 精东传媒app and are reviewed annually.

The SA fee is charged each Teaching Period based on your enrolment load. Eligible students can defer payment of their SA fee by completing a assistance form prior to the census date.
