Fees

Learn more about our fees

When you study with Swinburne Online, your course fees include learning materials, study support and assessment support services. Course fees will change depending on whether you study at University or VET level and whether you’re an international or domestic student.

The below costs are the estimated annual fees. These are based on students taking the equivalent of eight 12.5 credit point units per calendar year. To determine how much a core unit costs, you can divide the annual fee by eight. Please note that for the Graduate Diploma of Early Childhood Teaching units are 25 credit points each.

Your overall course cost may also vary depending on whether your course includes electives, which may differ based on their discipline. You may also pay less overall for your course if you receive unit credit awarded in recognition of previous academic experience.

The program is called ULANZ and more information is available here: ULANZ website
