Bursaries

UNE offers eligible commencing international students a bursary in the form of a 20% fee reduction of the published 2025 annual international tuition fees for their first year of study.

After receiving a bursary for their first year of study, students must achieve a minimum GPA of 4.5 on a 7.0 scale at the end of each academic year to be eligible to continue receiving the bursary in their next year of study.

These students will be identified by UNE International and reported to Student Accounts.
