How much will it cost overall – tuition + living?

The total cost for a Bachelor’s in Australia typically includes tuition fees, living expenses, health insurance, and other personal costs.

• Tuition fees vary depending on the university and program, usually ranging from AUD 30,000 to 45,000 per year for most undergraduate programs. Courses like Engineering, IT, or Medicine may be at the higher end.
• Living expenses include rent, food, transport, and personal costs. On average, a student can expect to spend around AUD 20,000 per year, although cities like Sydney and Melbourne tend to be more expensive than smaller cities like Adelaide or Brisbane.
• Additional costs include Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC), which is mandatory for international students, roughly AUD 600–700 per year, and study materials or textbooks (AUD 500–1,000 per year).

So, for a 3–4-year Bachelor’s degree, you can roughly budget around AUD 150,000–200,000 in total, depending on your city and lifestyle choices.
