How to Apply
Fees
The University of Melbourne has adopted a new system for charging Postgraduate Course Fees. Fees per subject will be set on an annual basis.
Fee Help
Fee Help is now available for this course for Australian residents or holders of Australian permanent visas. Fee Help is an interest-free loans facility for fee-paying postgraduate students undertaking non-research courses. It is similar to the deferred payment arrangements available under HECS. For further details please go to http://www.goingtouni.gov.au/
Tax Benefits:
If your study has a connection to your current income-earning activities, you should examine Taxation Ruling TR 98/9 closely with your accountant. The ruling examines deductibility of program fees under self-education expenses under Section 8-1 of the Australian Income Tax Assessment Act 1997. The ruling provides comprehensive guidelines on eligibility and types of deductions available.
