The Student Semester Rate covers accommodation costs of a single bedroom together with full use of the shared and common facilities. Meals and other provisions are the personal responsibility of the resident.
During the first semester of occupancy payment of the Student Semester Rate is paid in three (3) instalments, where the full amount is not paid up-front. The table below shows the instalment scheduled dates and amounts:

| When Due | Amount | When Due | Amount |
| Before or as part of check-in | $2,000.00 | Before or as part of check-in | $2,000.00 |
| By 31 March | $1,000.00 | By 30 September | $1,000.00 |
| By 30 April | Balance of the Semester Rate | By 31 October | Balance of the Semester Rate |

For all residential semesters following the semester in which check-in occurs, the Student Semester Rate can be paid off on a weekly or fortnightly schedule with the first payment due on 1 January for Semester 1 or 1 July for Semester 2. To calculate the weekly or fortnightly amount, refer to the calculation example below:
| For Weekly Payments Payments under this schedule are to commence the first day of the Residential Semester (1 January or 1 July) then on a weekly basis thereafter | For Fortnightly payments Payments under this schedule are to commence the first day of the Residential Semester (1 January or 1 July) then on a fortnightly basis thereafter |
|---|---|
| Divide the Student Semester Rate by 26 Eg. If the Student Semester Rate was $4,500.00* and we divide it by 26 and rounded up, the weekly payment is = $173.08 | Divide the Student Semester Rate by 13 Eg. If the Student Semester Rate was $4,500.00* and we divide it by 13 and rounded up, the fortnightly payment is = $346.16 |
