Fees - costs & payment

All students at universities in Australia pay fees.

Most students at public universities contribute to the cost of their tertiary education through payment of their Student Contribution Amount (fees) which can be deferred onto the Commonwealth Government's Higher Education Contribution Loan Scheme HECS-HELP.

From 2005, under new legislation, all Australian students at Notre Dame have access to the Commonwealth Government loan schemes FEE-HELP and HECS-HELP. The FEE-HELP limit in 2007 is $100,000 for Medicine students and $80,000 for all other students. These limits increase in 2008 to $102,000 for Medicine students and $81,600 for all other students. Students will not have to repay their loan until income reaches at least $38,148 for the 2006/2007 financial year and $39,825 in the 2007/2008 financial year. (This amount will be amended through a CPI indexing calculation each year.)

Since 1999, the Commonwealth Government has provided a limited number of fully funded Commonwealth supported places for students of The University of Notre Dame Australia. These places are allocated to the University's Broome Campus and to Fremantle and Sydney students enrolled in pre-service teaching, nursing and graduate Medicine.

The fee structure at Notre Dame allows the University to provide closer individual attention with smaller classes and a community atmosphere that encourages the students to get to know the staff and their fellow students. Lecturers make every effort to provide each and every student with the academic and personal support needed to succeed.
