Books and Equipments
Don't rush out to buy anything before your first class. Academic staff will advise you as
to essential equipment and text books.
In general studio based programs will have higher additional costs than non-studio based programs.
Costs for books, stationary and equipment vary greatly, but you should allow approximately $1000 a
year for these expenses. This figure excludes computing requirements.
Living Expenses
There are a number of factors which will influence your cost of living, for example, rent will
vary considerable depending on the type of property and its location. Other essential costs are food,
transport, entertainment, clothing and any incidental expenses related to your programs such as field trips.
As a general guide, students should have at least $2000 to cover the initial establishment expenses such
as rental bond and basic furniture, and allow for average weekly expenses of about $350.
