An international student is any student who does not hold permanent residency in Australia and is a citizen of a country other than Australia or New Zealand. Even if you have been granted temporary residency in Australia, you are still considered to be an international student.

There is an additional $250 cost above the standard fees quoted for each unit at undergraduate or postgraduate level. For UNILEARN units, the international fee is $140 per unit. This fee is payable by international students whether they are living in Australia or overseas.
