applicable only to the calendar year (January-December)
in which the course is commenced. If a course of study
extends for one or more semesters in a subsequent
calendar year(s), the students will be required to pay the
tuition fee applicable for that calendar year(s). Annual fee
increases (or decreases) are expected to be modest. Under
current circumstances this would be in the order of up to
5% per annum.

Student services fee

The University of Otago is required by Government regulation to ensure a range of services are available to students and these are
funded through the charging of the Student Services Fee.
In 2015, the Student Services Fee (GST inclusive) for Dunedin on-campus students is $718.00.
Students whose course is delivered at the other University of Otago campuses (Wellington, Christchurch and Southland) are
charged a Student Services Fee of $128.00. Distance students are not charged a Student Services Fee as there is no access to
services for these students.
