the course duration The deposit fee will need to be paid along with the submission of the Student Acceptance Form. Students are also required to pay their semester tuition fee before the commencement of each semester.

Victoria University reserves the right to annually adjust course tuition fees to take into account increases in University and program delivery costs. Changes to tuition fees will likely be applied at the beginning of each calendar year.
The schedule of course fees are posted on January 1 each year (the relevant section for international students is Part D).
Inside the event of a variation between the fees on the offer letter and the approved University schedule of fees,
Office 2007 Pro, the approved schedule will prevail. Course tuition fees are invoiced on a semester basis based on the enrolled load for that particular semester.
