Tuition fees apply for Education Queensland International (EQI) study programs. Fees vary depending on which program you choose and the duration of your study.
Tuition fees for EQI (CRICOS Provider Code: 00608A) cover:
- all curriculum schooling and teaching costs
- curriculum-related excursions.
All fees must be paid in Australian dollars and are inclusive of GST if applicable.
EQI will not collect more than 50% of your total tuition fees for a course before the student has commenced the course; unless the relevant course is for less than 25 weeks or the student/payer elects to do so.
Some non-tuition fees may also apply for items such as school uniforms and non-curriculum activities. These costs may differ from school to school.
