Study Related Costs

The program tuition fee does not cover additional study related costs. All students should allow additional expenditure of at least $500 per year for textbooks and basic study materials. Depending on the program other costs may include specialist equipment (e.g. laboratory coats, microscopes, stethoscopes); optional supplementary reading and academic program materials; field trips; and research related expenses such as thesis preparation, printing and binding.

Payment of Fees

International students at the University of Adelaide are required to pay international student fees for their respective programs of study.

A deposit payment of AUD$6000 is payable when a student accepts the Offer of Admission. This payment is counted as credit towards the student's tuition fees in the first semester/trimester. After enrolment, students will be invoiced for the balance of their fees in that semester/trimester.

An invoice for the balance of the first semester/trimester tuition fees will be sent before the first day of the semester/trimester. Fees for subsequent semesters/trimesters will be due at the beginning of each semester/trimester.

If fees are not paid when they are due, and you have not consulted with Student Finance about financial hardship, or entered into an approved payment plan, your enrolment may be cancelled.  Please see Fee Paying student section of the web for more details.

International student fees for coursework programs are charged by enrolment load. The annual fee for a particular academic program is based upon the standard full-time enrolment of 24 units per year, representing an enrolment load of 1.0. Fees for students who 'overload' or 'underload' will be adjusted accordingly.

Fees vary between Faculties and Schools (e.g. Engineering, Science, Commerce) and can also vary within Faculties and Schools as they are calculated according to the discipline of study.

Therefore, students undertaking a course (subject) from another discipline will be charged for that course at the rate applicable to that discipline. This may mean an increase or decrease in fees. Students planning to undertake courses in different programs are advised to check the fee commitment with the Student Centre prior to enrolling.

Information on individual course fees is available on the University's Course Planner.

Student Services Fee

Students may elect to join the Adelaide University Union (AUU), the peak student representative body at the University. By joining, students will assist the AUU to develop and implement the philosophy that life at university is so much more than textbooks and lectures. In addition, students will be able to access a range of discounts covering gym membership, prices at commercial outlets on campus, textbooks and participation in a comprehensive range of activities of the Students' Association, Clubs Association and Sports Association.

The current semester membership fee for the AUU is $99 (GST inclusive).

Refund Policy for International Students

 Students must read the Refund Policy for International Students before accepting the Offer of Admission. The policy complies with all of the requirements for tuition fee refunds stipulated in the Education Services for Overseas Student (ESOS) Act 2000, associated Commonwealth regulations, and the ESOS National Code of Practice.
