Costs

There are two types of honours places available at the University of Sydney: Commonwealth supported places; and International fee-paying places.

Commonwealth supported places

Most undergraduate students at the University of Sydney are Commonwealth supported. These students have most of the cost of their education paid by the government but must also contribute towards the cost themselves.

International fee-paying places

There are different tuition fees for International students. The honours year is normally charged at the same rate as the bachelors degree to which it is attached.
