All of Jack's tuition fees for this program are determined by his commencement year. This program could be completed in 2007 if Jack enrolled on a full-time basis, but he works full-time and is studying part time, so expects to complete the program sometime in 2009.\n\nJack has a particular penchant for technology issues in the workplace and would like to undertake course INFS8004 (Information Systems Management in Organisations) at some stage during his program as an elective.\n\n- If Jack enrols in this course in 2007, the tuition fee is $2640.\n- If Jack enrols in this course in 2008, the tuition fee increases by 5% ie $2640 x 105% = $2772.\n- If Jack enrols in this course in 2009, the tuition fee increases by a further 5 % ie $2772 x 105% = $2910.\n\nHe also likes the look of the syllabus for ECON8066 (Issues in Market Design).\n\n- If Jack enrols in this course in 2007, the tuition fee is $2520.\n- If Jack enrols in this course in 2008, the tuition fee increases by 5% ie $2520 x 105% = $2646.\n- If Jack enrols in this course in 2009, the tuition fee increases by a further 5% ie $2646 x 105% = $2778.\n- Other examples are set out in the guidelines mentioned in clause 5.\\]\n\n","sortOrder":4},{"sectionNumber":"8","sectionType":"section","heading":"Extension of program arrangements for higher degree research students","content":"8 Extension of program arrangements for higher degree research students\n\n8.1 A student enrolled in a higher degree research program who has successfully obtained an extension of program beyond the normal time limit is to pay fees as follows:\n\n(a) a domestic student:\n\nis to be granted an exemption scholarship in 2010;\n\n(b) an international student resident in Australia:\n\nis to pay a subsidized fee of $3,000 (non-laboratory) or $4,000 (laboratory) per semester in 2010;\n\n(c) an international student resident overseas:\n\nis to have his or her tuition fees waived in 2010.\n\n> Note: \\[Notes: Transitional HECS Arrangements\n\n1. All pre-2007 students are to be protected on the indexed rate until the 31 December 2010. If a pre-2007 student discontinues during this time -\\- e.g. transfers Program, takes leave of absence without approval or leaves their Program (whether by withdrawal or exclusion) -- this protection will NOT carry over and the student is to be charged at the new 25% increased rate.\n2. Pre-1997 students were rolled over to the pre-2007 status in 2009. (This is because DEEWR will no longer be publishing a \"flat fee\" rate any more and there are no mechanisms to report such students from 2009 onwards.) These students then remain until 31 December 2010 on the protected rate\n3. Students who commenced enrolment from and including 2007 are charged an additional 25%.\n4. The Business and Economics \"Band 2\" protection will continue until the end of 2012 in line with the DEEWR transition arrangements.\\]\n\n","sortOrder":5},{"sectionNumber":"9","sectionType":"section","heading":"Repeal","content":"9 Repeal\n\n9.1 The Tuition Fees Order 2008 is repealed.\n\n","sortOrder":6},{"sectionNumber":"Sch 1","sectionType":"schedule","heading":null,"content":"SCHEDULE 1\n\n","sortOrder":7},{"sectionNumber":"2010","sectionType":"section","heading":"INDICATIVE FEES SCHEDULE","content":"2010 INDICATIVE FEES SCHEDULE\n\nAll fees are quoted on a per annum basis (standard 48 units) unless otherwise noted\n\n
