Is it true that I can recover university fees within a month after the six-month term break in Ireland/Australia?

No, you generally cannot recover university fees within a month after the six-month term break.

Most universities in Ireland, Canada, and Australia have strict refund policies with set deadlines - typically early in the semester. Refunds are usually only available if you withdraw before these deadlines. After the initial term or census date, fees are rarely refundable, and exceptions are uncommon.
