Postgraduate Fee Information

Savings of up to 87% are available through Commonwealth Supported Places (CSPs)* for more courses than ever before. The cost of postgraduate study will depend on your degree, however you can expect to incur expenses including tuition and student contributions, as well as additional costs like textbooks, equipment and parking.

Postgraduate programs at Western Sydney University are either Commonwealth Supported or Domestic Fee Paying, and if you are eligible, you may be able to obtain a HECS-HELP loan for payment of your student contribution or tuition fees.

The Australian government provides Western Sydney University with a specified number of Commonwealth Supported Places to which they provide a financial contribution towards the costs of study. Each student holding a Commonwealth Supported Place must then pay the remainder of their study costs via their Student Contribution.

Eligible postgraduate students have the option to apply for a HELP loan prior to the census date. You will need to refer to the Commonwealth Supported Students webpage for all your fee information.

Fees are charged per subject according to the Western Sydney University approved fees schedule and vary across awards and subjects. The fee schedule is revised each calendar year, and therefore fees may increase annually.

Please note that tuition fees do not include any other expenses associated with university study such as books, equipment, accommodation and living expenses

Save up to 87% on postgrad course fees

Through Commonwealth Supported Places (CSPs), eligible students have course fees subsidised. This passes the savings directly on to you for a variety of our postgraduate programs, including our Graduate Diplomas and Graduate Certificates. You may also be eligible to access a HECS-HELP loan to pay the smaller 'student contribution' fee.

Who is eligible for a CSP?

To be eligible for a CSP you must be:

  • an Australian citizen
  • a New Zealand citizen who will be a resident in Australia for the duration of your study, or
  • the holder of a permanent visa who is a resident in Australia for the duration of your study.
