Guest mikewheble Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Hi all, Similar to the School fees on 457, I thought I would ask the same about Uni fees. Here's my situation. I have a 475 regional visa granted in April and was heading for regional Perth in feb next year however, yesterday I was offered a position in Sydney and am now applying on 457. I have one son who is mid way through Uni in Swansea and will be staying here to complete it and join us later however, my youngest son is yet to start Uni and was due to go to Manchester Uni in Sept. My question is, on a 457, doe’s my son/me have to pay International Uni rates for Sydney or are they subsidised? Any help gratefully received Regards Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_shel Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 He'll pay international fees with no access to commonwealth (subsidised) places or student loans. That is until/unless he gets PR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudi Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Yep, full international fees I m afraid. have a look at http://www.goingtouni.gov.au/ for lots of useful info Love Rudi x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Yes, full international fees, not even the subsidised Commonwealth fees - very expensive! He'd be better off getting his honours degree in UK in 3 years rather than the 4 years it would take him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikewheble Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Shel, Rudi, Quoll Thanks for the quick response. It was as I thought unfortunately...looks as if he'll stay here for Uni. Regards Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
