Domestic tuition fees
09 November 2023
You will pay domestic tuition fees if you are a NZ citizen or you have Australian citizenship, NZ Residence Class Visa or Australian Permanent Residence and you live in NZ while studying at UC.
HOW TO APPLY
Tuition fees vary for each course, depending on the subject area and course level. Subjects that involve lab work usually have a higher tuition fee than lecture-based subjects, and postgraduate courses are normally more expensive than undergraduate courses. Tuition fees also reflect the point value of the course, so that a 30-point course fee will be twice the fee of a 15-point course in the same subject area and level. Each course is assigned to a Tuition Fee Band according to its subject area and whether it is at undergraduate level or postgraduate level, as outlined below.
Domestic tuition fee bands by course subject & level
You can estimate your tuition fees total by adding the individual course fees (found on each course's information page) or by entering the course codes in the Fees estimator.
Tuition fees estimate by qualification
Find your qualification in the list below for an estimate of how much you're likely to pay in tuition fees for the points value shown. The final amount on your Statement of Fees in your Enrolment Agreement will reflect the courses you have chosen and will include additional non-tuition fees such as SSL.
Tuition fees are reviewed annually and are subject to change so if your qualification takes more than one year to complete, your following year's fees will be at a higher rate. The prices below are indicative only and UC reserves the right to change these published fees before enrolment to reflect any changes in Government or University Council Policy. See Fees and Fines Regulations for more information.

Paying your tuition fees
Fees are paid at the commencement of your study each year and your enrolment is not complete until your fees have been paid in full. There are a number of ways to fund your studies and several payment methods.
Your Enrolment Agreement will include a Statement of Fees with the exact amount to pay - including tuition fees, the Student Services Levy (SSL), and any other course-related costs. Failure to accept your Enrolment Agreement by the deadline may also incur a Late Enrolment Fee that will show on your Statement of Fees.
Your fees total on your Statement of Fees must be paid in full before your enrolment at UC can be completed, and you risk losing access to course content and assessment if you do not arrange payment within two weeks of your course start date.
