Fee Breakdown

Fees
Application fees

- On-time application fee (Year 10 entry): AUD 270.00 (non‑refundable). Remote/online testing may incur an additional fee charged by the testing provider; late applications are charged a higher non‑refundable fee (AUD 300.00 where a late fee is published).

Tuition fees — International students (Queensland Academies International Baccalaureate program)

- Annual tuition (Queensland Academies International Baccalaureate programs — Year 10 and Years 11–12): AUD 26,574.00 for the 2026 fee year.
- Per‑term equivalent (calculated by dividing the annual fee by the four school terms that form a Queensland school year): AUD 6,643.50 per term (annual fee ÷ 4). Queensland state schools operate on a four‑term year.
- Note: Years 11–12 tuition under EQI includes the required QCAA moderation component where applicable. Invoices and the student's Statement of Fees will show the exact breakdown and any non‑tuition charges applied to the enrolment.

Tuition fees — Domestic students (state fee items)

- International Baccalaureate (IB) delivery charge for domestic students (published example): AUD 2,571.24 (published figure for 2025; campus resource and other compulsory fees may vary by year and by campus). Other campus charges such as student resource schemes, textbook/IT charges vary by campus and will be specified on school billing.

Billing schedule and payment terms

- Initial invoice: an invoice for tuition and non‑tuition fees will be issued prior to the course start and for the relevant year; the invoice specifies the bank account and verified payment details to be used.
- Maximum up‑front collection: no more than 50% of the total tuition fees for a course will be collected prior to the student commencing (unless the course is shorter than 25 weeks or the payer elects otherwise).
- Homestay and other non‑tuition items: homestay placement, OSHC and homestay holding fees may be invoiced with tuition or billed separately as specified on the invoice (homestay is generally invoiced with tuition or otherwise in advance of arrival). Administration fees may apply for student‑initiated changes to enrolment or welfare arrangements.
- Notice requirements: to withdraw from a program of study, at least 10 weeks' written notice is normally required; shorter notice affects the calculation of any refund.

Boarding / Homestay (where relevant)

- On‑site residential boarding is not provided by the Academy; international students use EQI‑arranged homestay accommodation. Homestay placements are governed by EQI and local Homestay Coordinators.
- Homestay fees and charges (indicative for 2026): homestay placement fee AUD 476.00 (including GST); homestay weekly fees AUD 382.00 per week (typical full‑board private room rate); homestay holding fee approximately AUD 60.00 per week where applicable. Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) if arranged by EQI is typically charged and is approximately AUD 700.00 (amount varies by provider and policy period). These homestay and OSHC charges are invoiced as non‑tuition items.

Other costs and typical additional fees

- Uniforms: families must purchase Academy uniform items through the school's uniform shop ordering system (orders processed via the QKR app; garments collected from Administration). Uniform costs are paid by families and vary by the items required; the Academy does not maintain second‑hand uniform stock centrally.
- Stationery, textbooks, digital devices and subject‑specific materials: these are additional family costs and vary by year level and subject choices; digital device expectations or hire/loan options, and any associated charges, are set by the school and will appear on the Statement of Fees where applicable.
- Vocational Education and Training (VET) or other third‑party course fees: these may attract separate published fees where a VET provider or third party is involved; these will be itemised on the student's invoice when applicable.

Refunds and cancellation

- Application and on‑site testing fees are final and non‑refundable in most circumstances. Remote testing and other third‑party testing fees may also be additional and non‑refundable.
- General refund framework: refund amounts depend on the specific circumstance (provider default, visa refusal, student withdrawal and timing, provider cancellation, disciplinary cancellation, etc.). Where the provider cancels before a course start, unspent tuition and accommodation fees are refunded promptly; otherwise refunds are processed in accordance with EQI standard terms and the ESOS refund instruments. Refund claims require the standard refund request form and supporting evidence. Refunds due to provider default are paid within 14 days; other approved refunds are typically paid within 28 days of a completed refund request. Withdrawing at least 10 weeks before the agreed commencement normally entitles the payer to a refund of fees paid (less any administrative charge where stipulated); shorter notice or withdrawal after commencement is dealt with under the EQI refund rules.

Fee payment options (how payments are accepted)

- All fees are payable in Australian dollars (AUD). Invoices will specify the verified bank account details for electronic funds transfer and any other accepted payment methods; it is the payer's responsibility to verify those account details on the invoice prior to transfer.
- School‑shop payments (uniforms and minor school purchases) are handled through the QKR app (card payments via QKR). Some international credit/debit card payments from overseas may not be accepted by the Academy's payment processors; alternative methods or assistance must be arranged with admissions where there are payment issues.

If you require the precise itemised Statement of Fees for a specific student or intake (term dates, homestay start date, VET subject fees or a campus‑specific resource levy), that information appears on the enrolment agreement and Statement of Fees issued for the student's enrolment and on invoices.
