Fees

The DCP/MSc is a full fee paying program. DCP students who have been offered full fee paying places are required to pay their fees up front at enrolment or submit an application for FEE-HELP (if eligible). In 2008, the fee for full fee paying local students is $340 per credit point. In the first year, students will be required to enrol in 24 credit points in Semester 1 and 24 credit points in Semester 2, a total of 48 credit points for the first year. The accurate fee payable will be determined at enrolment. Payments may be made by cheque or credit card. Unfortunately, cash or EFTPOS will not be accepted. Fees may be paid in full at the beginning of each year, or by semester at the beginning of each semester. A limited number of top ranked students may have been offered a HECS-based Commonwealth supported merit place. Students may choose to suscribe to a number of student organisations at their own cost: Sydney University Postgraduate Representative Association (SUPRA), University of Sydney Union (USU), Students Representative Council (SRC).

Enrolment plan

Students must enrol in all units of study as outlined. For full time students, 48 credit points in first year and 36 credit points in second year. Variation to enrolment is not permitted.
