Reduced fees for postgraduate study

Save up to 83% on postgraduate study - with over 30 of our UniSQ postgraduate qualifications offering up to 83% discount on your tuition fees.

Postgraduate degree fees fall into two categories: Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP) or full-fee paying places. Commonwealth Supported Places are subsidised by the government and are now available in more UniSQ degrees. It's a subsidy, not a loan, so you don't have to pay it back.

Study now and pay later – a HECS-HELP loan could also allow you to defer the payment of the remaining fees.
