Student FeesHow Much Do I Have to Pay? Domestic students and holders of a Permanent Humanitarian visa are eligible for HECS-HELP. The HECS-HELP student contribution amount is based on the discipline of the individual courses in which a student is enrolled. Remember that a new program = the new rate. For students that are transferring to a new program (including changes from a combined to single degree program) in 2012, you will be charged at the 2012 student cohort rate. Please note that if you are a student studying Accounting, Administration, Economics or Commerce courses and were enrolled pre 2008, you will be charged at the pre 2008 rates for these courses, dependent on your year of commencement for your current program.
Students commencing a new program in 2012, 2011 & 2010Eligible students that commence a new program of study at ANU in 2012 will be charged at the scheduled rate. In 2013 and beyond, the rate will be indexed. You will be informed of the 2013 rate when it is published in October 2012. Remember that a new program = a new rate. For students transferring to a new program (including changes from a combined to single degree program) in 2012, you will be charged at the applicable 2012 rate.
Students commencing a program in 2010, 2011 or 2012 will be required to pay up to the maximum of the Band 1 rate ($5,442 indexed for later years) for any education courses that they undertake. Students should be aware that this rate is described on Study@ as "Education". This means either National Priority or Band 1, depending upon your year of commencement as outlined here.
Students that commenced a new program in 2009Changes from 2009Students that commenced a program in 2009 were required to pay up to the maximum of the national priorities rate for any mathematics, statistics and science courses that they undertake. Students who commenced a non-natural and physical sciences program prior to 1 January 2009 and who transfer into a natural and physical science program will also be eligible for the national priority amount. Other students continue to pay up to the Band 2 maximum for mathematics, statistics and science courses. Student Contribution Amounts for students that commenced a new program in 2009

Student Learning Entitlement (SLE)
The SLE system will be abolished from 1 January 2012. The Higher Education Support Amendment (Demand Driven Funding System and Other Measures) Bill 2011 was passed by the Parliament on 14 September 2011.
Under the provisions of the Bill, eligible students will no longer have a limit placed on how much study they can undertake as a Commonwealth supported student. Students who have used up their allocation of SLE will now be able to re-enrol from 1 January 2012 to complete their studies as a Commonwealth supported student (or undertake further study in a Commonwealth supported place). Those students who used up their SLE and have paid tuition fees for a fee paying place and/or received a FEE-HELP loan are not able to receive a remittance of those fees or a reduction in their FEE-HELP debt.

Domestic students in tuition fee paying places are charged tuition fees for the courses they enrol in dependent on the year they commenced their program.
The course tuition fee published on this website applies to an enrolment in the 2012 academic year. Students who commence their program of study in 2012 can determine the tuition fee that will apply if enrolling in the course in a subsequent year, by applying a compounding increase of 5% per annum to the 2012 tuition fee. The annual percentage increase applies for the duration of your program. If for example, you commence the Master of Professional Accounting in 2012 and do not complete or discontinue that program so that your enrolment extends to future academic years, the tuition fee you will pay for each course offered would be dependent on the year you enrol in that course.
The increase of 5% compounding per annum will apply until you complete or discontinue the program of study you commenced in 2012. An approved transfer to another program of study prior to completion is considered a discontinuation.
Jack commenced a Master of Professional Accounting in 2012. All of Jack's tuition fees for this program are determined by his commencement year. This program could be completed in 2013 if Jack enrolled on a full-time basis, but he works full-time and is studying part time, so expects to complete the program sometime in 2014.
Jack has a particular penchant for technology issues in the workplace and would like to undertake course INFS8004 (Information Systems Management in Organisations) at some stage during his program as an elective.
Towards the end of 2012, Jack is given a promotion as project manager for the financial systems upgrade in his department. He is keen to impress his employer and enhance his future opportunities in a similar role, so considers a change of career path. As a consequence, he decides to discontinue the Master of Professional Accounting in favour of the Master of Business Information Systems. He applies to the University to transfer his program effective for Semester 1, 2013.
Course INFS8004 (Information Systems Management in Organisations) is an elective for this program. However, since Jack has changed his program of study, his commencement year is no longer 2012. His transfer to the Master of Business Information Systems will see him treated as a 2013 commencing student in this program of study. The tuition fee applicable to the 2013 academic year is available in October 2012.
After 9 months in his new role, Jack decides that his new career is not for him and decides to return to his role as an accountant. He applies to transfer back to the Master of Professional Accounting for 2014. Jack has been lucky enough to choose his enrolments carefully and expects to stay on track to complete the program at the end of 2014 or perhaps half way through 2015.
Because of changes in his employment, Jack did not enrol in as many courses as he would have liked in 2013 and has not yet undertaken course INFS8004 (Information Systems Management in Organisations). He thinks it is still a good idea, so plans to enrol in the course in 2014.
Jack had his transfer back to the Master of Professional Accounting approved, however this will see him treated as a 2014 commencing student in this program of study. The tuition fee applicable to the 2014 academic year will be available in October 2013.
Jack enrols in the early part of 2014 but his partner has the opportunity to work in Thailand for a year or two. Obviously, Jack wants to accompany his partner, but this means he will need to defer his studies in the latter part of 2014 through to late 2015/2016. This means he is unable to complete his program in 2014 and potentially, not until 2015 or 2016.
Jack should apply for approved leave from his program. This does not however, affect his commencement year for the purposes of determining his tuition fee. This will still be 2014, despite the approved leave from study.
The tuition fees applicable for undergraduate and postgraduate courses in 2012 are available against the descriptions of each course available at Study@ANU. The applicable fee will correspond to the year you started your program. If you are a new student in 2012, this will be 2012. If you are a continuing student, this will be the year you commenced your current program. If you are a continuing student and you are changing your program or starting a new program in 2012, then your commencing year is 2012.
