Program Notes
This program can be studied in the standard full-time mode or in an accelerated mode. If you accelerate your studies and
complete the program early (before your CoE end date), the university is obliged to report your early completion to the
Department of Home Affairs (DHA). This may have visa implications, and could result in you being required to leave Australia
earlier than expected, so please contact DHA for advice if you are considering this option.
^ From 30 June 2023, in accordance with Australian government requirements, the University will be returning to face-to-face teaching for all students. Students
are encouraged to regularly check the International Student FAQ page for information and updates.
Additional Information
Your Offer of Admission is valid until 9 September 2024.
The University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia are working together to combine the strengths of the two universities
to create Adelaide University from 1 January 2026. The University of Adelaide will continue to operate until the start of 2026. Subject
to legal and regulatory approvals, it is proposed that students enrolled before 2026 and who are yet to finish their studies will
transition to the new university in 2026, in either their existing or an equivalent program. We are committed to supporting all
students through the transition.
Program information will be published as soon as it becomes available. Find out more at www.adelaideuni.edu.au.
Tuition Fees
The Estimated Annual or Total Tuition Fee is based on the current available year's published program fees at a standard full-time
enrolment (24 units per year). The Program Deposit portion of the Acceptance Fee as mentioned within the Acceptance Form will be
allocated towards your tuition. Any overpayment of the Acceptance Fee will not be refunded but will remain on your account to be
used for future tuition payments. Tuition Fees are reviewed annually and may increase in future years. To confirm the annual tuition
fee for future years, refer to Degree Finder at www.adelaide.edu.au/degree-finder six months prior to the commencement of the
program. Your tuition fees will be based on your enrolment and the fees set for that year.
The majority of the University's programs are offered in semesters; however, some programs are taught across different teaching
periods such as trimesters. Students will be invoiced at the beginning of their teaching periods. The actual tuition fees charged will be
based on a student's unit enrolment and the published annual program fees for the year of enrolment. Should a student 'overload' or
'underload', their fees will be increased or decreased accordingly. For example, students enrolled in 12 units will be charged half of
the published annual tuition fee for the year of study. Degree Finder contains comprehensive information about this program, for
more information, please visit www.adelaide.edu.au/degree-finder.
The University can arrange OSHC for you through Medibank, our preferred supplier, who exclusively offer Comprehensive OSHC to
their education partners. Medibank Comprehensive is not available directly and can only be purchased through the University of
Adelaide. It meets the student visa requirements for all course types and provides a range of added value services above government
minimum requirements. For more information, please visit www.medibank.com.au/overseas-health-insurance/oshc/comprehensive-
oshc.
The OSHC fee quoted in this Offer of Admission is accurate at the date of issue but is subject to change. The University reserves the
right to adjust the OSHC fees in accordance with Medibank’s policies and you may be invoiced if there is a difference. You do not have
to arrange OSHC through the University you can choose to arrange your own policy directly with an OSHC provider of your choice.
Professional Registration
Australian statutory authorities external to the University reserve the right to change conditions of professional registration (e.g.
nurses, teachers) and the information currently provided by the University is therefore subject to change.
