How to pay

We want to provide flexibility as you move from on-campus to online study. Since online and on-campus students will be studying together:

  • you will pay the same rate whether you choose to study online or on-campus
  • if you are studying on a part-time basis you will pay pro-rata over multiple years

It is possible that the University will apply an inflationary increase in future years.
