FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

You can pay your BDS fees through a range of convenient options, including Wire Transfer, Flywire, HDFC Bank Overseas Payment (RemitNow), and Thomas Cook, making it easier to choose a method that works best for you.

Yes. The BDS fee structure includes early-application rebates.

If you apply and confirm your admission within the specified early deadlines, you may qualify for a reduction in your tuition fees. This rebate is applied directly to your program fee and is designed to reward students who complete the admissions process early.

As rebate amounts and deadlines vary by intake, applying earlier in the admission cycle can help you reduce your overall tuition cost.

For the BDS program, scholarships and rebates are two distinct types of financial support, each applied to your tuition differently.

Scholarships are merit-based awards granted after a thorough evaluation of your profile, including your academic performance, entrance test scores, interview, and overall achievements. The awarded amount is then adjusted against your tuition fees.

Rebates, on the other hand, are structured fee concessions offered by the school. These are not based on merit but on predefined criteria such as application timelines or specific admission cycles. If you meet the stated conditions, the rebate is applied directly to your program fee.

Yes, loan support and financial aid options are available to help you manage your tuition fees. Our Admissions team will work closely with you to explain the available options and guide you through each step of the process.

If you choose to live off-campus, your overall cost will shift from a fixed accommodation package to variable, self-managed living expenses.

You will need to plan and budget independently for rent, utilities, groceries, transport, and other day-to-day expenses. These costs will vary depending on the city you study in and the type of accommodation you choose.

You can refer to our detailed Refund Policy for international students here.

For domestic students (this policy does not apply to international students studying onshore in Australia on a student visa), the relevant refund policy is available here.

No, the program fees do not include travel costs to the Sydney campus. You should plan separately for these expenses as part of your overall budget.
