Local Students
Local undergraduate students in the Faculty of Land and Food Resources will be enrolled under one of the following basic fee types:
Commonwealth Supported Places (Higher Education Contribution Scheme or HECS students)
Fees are subsidised by the Federal Government and can choose to defer the payments. Check the exact HECS and SAF fees here. For more details about HECS visit the DEST website.
Access Melbourne
This is the University's special entry and scholarship scheme and twenty percent (approximately 1000 places) of the University's new undergraduate Commonwealth Supported Places will be offered to students who have applied through Access Melbourne. There are also up to 200 Melbourne Access Scholarships available. These offer a HECS-exempt place plus $2000 or $4000 a year for up to four years. In 2007 at least 20% of the total number of Commonwealth supported places available were offered to Access Melbourne applicants. You can find out more from the Access Melbourne website.

Study Abroad and Exchange
The Study Abroad and Exchange programs are for international students undertaking one or two semesters study away from your home institution.

Study Abroad students come from universities that don't have a formal agreement with the University of Melbourne, and you will pay fees for the semester or year you study here.
