Scholarships and fees

FEE-HELP

Full fee paying students can defer their tuition fees via FEE-HELP, a loan scheme offered by the Federal Government for all Australian citizens. Repayments are automatically deducted from your salary by the Australian Taxation Office once your income reaches a certain amount. This amount changes every year. See StudyAssist for repayment details. 

Corporate sponsorships

Employers can sponsor students to complete postgraduate coursework with a formal sponsorship agreement, where UOW invoices the company for tuition fees directly. Email student-fees@uow.edu.au for more information on sponsorships.

Pay upfront

There’s also the option to pay all tuition fees in full up front. 

International students

International students can find out more information about the fees and cost of attending university on the International University Fees & Cost page.
