Domestic student fee information

Financing your degree

An investment in your education is an investment in your future. There are many finance options available for domestic students, including the fee-free, interest-free FEE-HELP loan scheme, as well as other government assistance, loyalty discounts and more.

About our fee structure

Fees for programs at Bond don’t need to be paid upfront, or in full, before you begin your degree. You will pay your fees on a semester-by-semester basis, only paying for the individual subjects you have enrolled in that semester. And if you’re utilising an Australian government loan scheme, like FEE-HELP, you may not need to pay any fees upfront.
