Table A: Student contribution bands for Commonwealth supported students

The cost of your 2012 units is based on the field of education classification of each unit of study. Units are grouped

on the basis of their field of education into four bands. We set a student contribution rate for each of the four bands.

If you have been offered a Commonwealth supported place in a course of study you may be covered by different

contribution amounts depending on when you commenced. You will be charged in accordance with the year you

commenced your course:

Students who commence in 2010, 2011 or 2012

your course structure in course information.

of your individual units within your course.
