New student services and amenities fee
The Higher Education Legislation Amendment (Student Services and Amenities) Bill was passed in late 2011 by the Australian Parliament, allowing universities and other higher education providers to charge an annual student services and amenities fee from 2012.
The amendment is a government initiative to increase student support services and facilities in Australian universities.
The student services and amenities fee will apply to international students at UTS from January 2013. All additional funds raised from this fee will be used to provide students with better services and amenities on campus.
