Australian National University (ANU) Admission

Australian National University Intake

ANU offers two major intakes each year for most undergraduate and postgraduate programs: the February Intake and the July Intake. Research degrees accept applications throughout the year, depending on supervisor and project availability.

Australian National University Fees

UTS doesn’t have a fixed fee structure across all programs, each degree has its own tuition cost. International students are encouraged to check individual course pages or use the UTS fee estimator to get precise annual fees before applying.
