Graduate fees

A graduate student must enrol in at least one course in all three terms in order to be fully enrolled, and for fees to charge, otherwise fee assessment will be incomplete. If a student is not taking an academic course in any term, they must still add a placeholder course as follows:

  • SGS 700 – for students who pay fees on a term-by-term basis
  • SGS 711 – for students who pay fees on a course costed basis

Complete details of regulations on fee assessment for graduate students can be found under the Financial Matters of the Graduate Calendar.

Don’t forget to review the Terms and Conditions of Enrolment before you begin to add courses.

Fees are subject to change. Check your student account for updates.

Fees are scheduled to be posted to students’ accounts in the first week of August.
