Fees for International Students
As an International Student, you need to be aware that there are certain fee conditions you need to comply with while you are studying.
This page contains information on the following:
International Tuition Fees
Upon commencement tuition fees are paid up front - one session at a time.
The offer letter states the tuition fee payable provided that you accept the current offer and commencement date.
The tuition fee will remain the same for the duration of the course, provided the course is completed in the minimum time, and is fixed at the level quoted in the final offer letter.
Please note: Should you change your course or campus after you have enrolled in your original course, you will be liable to pay the current tuition fees for the new course/or campus. Please check the current fees links provided below.
Students who in any one session undertake credit points in addition to the normal full-time load of 24 credit points per session, or 48 credit points per year, will be required to pay extra fees for that session at the equivalent rate per extra credit point.
For international students enrolling in a Non Award Course, fees payable are the current years’ tuition fees relevant to the appropriate course as listed in the attachments below. Please note fees may differ from your original offer to the University of Wollongong.

Sponsored Students
The University of Wollongong considers a sponsor as a third party, who pays tuition fees and charges on the student’s behalf and has a formal agreement for sponsorship with the University of Wollongong.
Students who have a private agreement with a third party are not considered a sponsored student by the University of Wollongong.
For sponsored students (as defined above), the University of Wollongong shall invoice the sponsor directly for the student’s fees and charges after the relevant census date.
Further information about sponsorship payment arrangements can be obtained from Student Central.
Official Fee Statements (for overseas funds to be released)
As international students, overseas financial institutions may require a formal fee statement from the University of Wollongong detailing a student's charges, estimated living costs and tuition fees.
These forms require an application and take approximately 2 weeks to process at Administration.
Applications can be made online via your SOLS account.
The University of Wollongong cannot produce an Official Fee Statement for a session you are not yet enrolled in, so please remember to state the session and year you require the statement for.
Please also indicate your preferred method of retrieval:
