Debbie Gandy Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Does anyone have any information about applying for University as a temporary resident. The cost is 3 times what a permanent resident would pay. Any tips how to get round this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisawright Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Why would you imagine there's any way to get around it? It is what it is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booma Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 the cheaper fees arent for visitors which is what a person with a temporary visa is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seraphim Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 As far as I am aware, reduced fees are only for Australian citizens (and possibly PR but I'm not sure if that's still available now). Visitors pay visitor rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy1 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 There is no way around it as a temporary resident. Why would there be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debbie Gandy Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 We had heard you can apply for Scholarships and receive grants and funds towards it. We thought someone may be able to offer advice from their own experiences but from the replies I have received so far I guess not. Thanks to everyone anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to everyone anyway when i were applying for scholarships they had all eligibility conditions. i had to prove citizenship in my application. i didnt see anything that would be for temporary residents. the only person I knew on temporary visa with scholarship got it from the overseas uni they enrolled in. it was to study overseas but then he had to go back to his own country to work for x years or repay the money.

NicF Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 There are scholarships available for international students but I think they tend to be for postgraduate students. Contact the university you are interested in directly and see if they offer any scholarships for international students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
