Special Payment Plan – 4 Instalments
Tuition fees for each teaching period are normally due
in two 50 percent instalments. If a student can demonstrate exceptional circumstances, a 4-part payment plan is available.
Semester 2 applications
Applications for Semester 2 must be submitted by Monday 16 June 2008.
Students will be expected to pay 25 per cent of their fee with their application, which will act as the first payment which is due on Tuesday 22 July 2008.
Applications must be made on the Special Payment Plan Application form which is available online or from your nearest Swinburne International office.
Applications should be sent to:
Manager, International Student Life
Swinburne Place, Level 1, West Building
Wakefield Street, Hawthorn, 3122
Alternatively, drop your application off at the Swinburne International reception.
