Fees and payment

Tuition fees for degree courses are charged on a per-subject basis for domestic students and on a per-course basis for international students, payable each semester. Most subjects are worth 10 credit points, although there are some subjects worth 5 and 20 credit points. Tuition fees vary between courses. All TAFE NSW fees and charges are reviewed on a yearly basis and are subject to change.

Fee payment options

An invoice will be issued to you when TAFE NSW receives your acceptance form, explaining the flexible terms available for payment of tuition fees.

You may be eligible to take out a FEE-HELP loan to help you pay your tuition fees. Or you can pay your tuition fees upfront by:

• EFTPOS
• Visa
• MasterCard
• Personal cheque, bank cheque or money order at your local Australia Post office
• BPAY

Cash is not accepted.

Equipment and other costs

In addition to tuition fees, you may be required to purchase additional resources (such as equipment, protective clothing, licence fees and textbooks) for some subjects. You cannot use FEE-HELP to pay for these additional costs.
