9.1.2 International student fees

All international candidates studying in Australia are required to pay full fees and be enrolled on a full-fee basis. Course fees are not fixed for the duration of the course and may increase depending on determinations in relation to the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

International candidates on student visa are also required to have Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC).

Candidates who are accompanied to Australia by dependants must have family rate cover for OSHC.

9.1.3 Student Services and Amenities Fee

All candidates are required to pay a Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF). This fee is charged based on the enrolment mode and study load within a calendar year. Information is available on the Fees website.

Australian citizens or permanent humanitarian visa holders residing in Australia can choose to pay the SSAF upfront or get an SA-HELP loan for the full amount.

International students do not have to make an additional payment because the international course fees include a provision for the SSAF.
