OVERSEAS STUDENT
HEALTH COVER
To comply with the student visa
requirements set by the Australian
Department of Immigration and
Citizenship, you must arrange visa-length
Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC),
and maintain your OSHC while studying
in Australia.
International students are usually required
to purchase visa-length Overseas Student
Health Cover at the time of course
acceptance. The University can arrange
visa-length OSHC on your behalf with
Allianz Global Assistance Overseas
Student Health Cover, the University’s
preferred OSHC provider.
STUDENT SERVICES AND
AMENITIES FEE
Under current Australian Government
regulations, universities may charge
students a Student Services and
Amenities Fee (SSAF).
Further information about the Student
Services and Amenities Fee, including
any amount you may be required to pay
in 2014, will be available at:
In 2013, international students did not
pay a separate Student Services and
Amenities Fee, as an equivalent amount
was paid from fee revenue.
OTHER COSTS
Other costs to consider include general
course costs, costs of living, club
memberships, Student Union activities
and Melbourne University Sport services.
If you are enrolling in the Under 18
Supervision Program coordinated by
International Student Services (ISS), a
program fee is charged.

costs, as well as advice on planning and

WHAT TUITION FEES DO I PAY?
Tuition fees are subject-based, which
means you’ll pay according to the
subjects you are studying, not your
course. In 2014 subject fees range
from $24 000 to $72 768 per 100 credit
points of study. The exact cost of
your course depends on the type and
number of subjects you take.
The course fees in the table below show
an estimate of the typical tuition fees
that a student commencing Semester 1
2014 in each undergraduate course will
pay based on the 2014 subject fees.
