Fees, Materials and Costs


The current fee structure in Australian Dollars (A$ = Rs.58 as of March 2008) is as follows:

One-time admission fee A$ 350
Fee per course A$ 750
No. of courses 12 (6 semesters of 2 courses each)

Total admission plus fee over 2 years is therefore A$9,350 or approx. USD8,000

This includes comprehensive study materials, access to USQConnect, 12 exams. Students are advised to cater for a nominal additional amount for local photocopies, stationery, and refundable library deposits.

Payment is based on a per course, pay-as-you-go-approach. In cases where a student may opt to take only 1 course in a semester due to workload or personal reasons, the fee payment is only for that 1 course.

Study materials include the Communication Handbook describing the methodology for presentation of assignments and use of references. Students are provided with a copy of a detailed USQ Australia Study Guide and an Introductory book for each course. Original reference textbooks required are imported at MDi Pakistan cost and kept in the MDi library for access and loan by students, and it is also possible to acquire text books at reasonable local prices from previous or fellow students. All students get a USQConnect login id/password at no extra cost for the tenure of their program at MDi.
