Paying your tuition fees

If a sponsor is paying your fees

You should let us know their details when you enrol. This information should be provided at the start of each year of study.

Sponsors are usually expected to pay the fees in full at the start of each year.

If you're self-funding your studies

You'll need to pay your fees directly to the University. You can pay in instalments, depending on the amount, duration of your studies, and whether you have a history of late payments. This is an automatic concession and does not have to be arranged with the Fees Office.

Home Students

• If you're starting in January: three equal instalments are due in January, April and July.
• If you're starting between April and June: three equal instalments are due in April, July and October.

We reserve the right to refuse instalment arrangements for students with a history of late payments to the University.
