Australian MBA Fees 2021 - The Full List

(Domestic and International Fee-paying MBA students)

The fees listed are provided as a general guide only. They have been sourced from publicly available information or individual universities and business schools. In relying on the list above potential students should be aware:

• The fees were sourced in February 2021 for students commencing in 2021 but may change in the future at each school’s discretion; and 
• Where schools have not provided full degree fees MBA News has made a judgement on the full degree costs based on information available. For instance, many schools provide on indicative annual fee for degrees which take 1.5 years to complete. In these cases MBA News has used current year indicative fees extrapolated over 1.5 years (ie $30,000pa x 1.5 years = $45,000); and
• Current fees for units (variably called courses, subjects, credit points etc) may increase in the future before the completion of your degree, increasing the overall cost of your degree; and
• The fees listed may or may not include incidentals like textbooks and other learning materials. In the case of study tours these additional fees can be substantial.
• Fees for international students may be different; and
• While all care has been taken to ensure their accuracy please consult your school on your full fee liability before commencing your MBA.
