I hope this is really the right place for me to post my topic (
And is it my deja vu that someone had posted some similar topic to
this ?). Firstly I have no idea of going to JC or Polytechnic and I
thought maybe studying overseas might be the best option. However,
I frankly have no idea of which part of Aust am I going to study
after my O's and am unsure of the yearly school fees for Aust's
colleges ( They didn't state it on the Study In Australia website
or maybe its just me being blind ) and I need to know how much on
average a month a college student spends. And I hope I can study up
to University in Australia.
Please advice. Thank you.
International students usually need to pay more than the
local students do in Australia. There are state/government
schools you can go or there are private college like Taylors
College in Melbourne mainly for international students. If
you already decided what course you'd like to do at uni, it might
be worth doing the foundation course. In Melbourne, there's
monash uni foundation course and I believe there's one for
Melbourne Uni too.
When I did the Monash Uni Foundation Course at Taylors College
more than 10 years ago, it already cost me over $10k for the whole
year. And that $10K was for school fees only.
You need to take into consideration other expenses like:
- Accommodation
- Food
- Transport
- Private health insurance
- Text Books
So if you really want to spend the money to study in Australia,
you will really have to work hard to make your money worth!!!
Good luck!
