Budgeting for Applications

  • Multiply the fee by the number of universities you plan to apply to.
  • Match each fee to the application window of your intake.
  • Confirm the exact amount on every university's official admissions page.

My Advice

Shortlist your universities first and then budget the total fees. Fees can change, so check each official page before you pay.
