2012 programme fees
This is a guide to help you get a quick estimate of the fees for your programme for 2012. The figures supplied will also assist you in making fair cost comparisons between programmes and institutions.
The fees calculated below are based on one year of full-time study (120 credits). Where you are enrolled part-time or in a programme of more or less credits (for example the Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Primary) - 156 credits) the actual tuition fee is calculated on the basis of fees for each paper.
There are compulsory non-tuition fees payable on enrolment in addition to your tuition fees. Charges for incidentals, i.e. study resources, software, trips and contact courses may also be applicable to your programme.
Different rates apply for New Zealand citizens or permanent residents, and International students.
Please note: Fees will be finalised on confirmation of enrolment. Non-tuition fees and other programme related fees may be payable according to your specific programme enrolment circumstances. After your enrolment is confirmed the University will invoice you for the exact fees due. The actual fees you pay are calculated by adding up the tuition fees for each of your approved papers, together with the non-tuition fees (such as admission, examination and enrolment fees) that are relevant to your situation.
