The overall expenses include tuition fees and the cost of living in Australia. These expenses vary from person to person but this article will guide you in direction to gain some form of understanding of what you should expect to pay for certain items and experience.
Tuition fees
It depends on how many units you registered during an academic year. However, schools/universities often update tuition fees information on their websites, so you are able to access and estimate how much you need to pay.
Despite its high study cost, Australia schools/universities regularly offer tons of study abroad scholarships for any student who wishes to study overseas, which is a big help in funding your experience. In addition, students are allowed to work part-time up to 20 hours per week.
Here is useful information about tuition fees in Australia from Globalway ( for reference):

The average cost of living in Australia
The average cost of living in Australia will greatly depend on your living arrangements. Some programs offer room and board included in the cost of the program, whereas others charge a flat rate and give you a monthly stipend for rent and food. Still, others will let you make your own living arrangements.
Room and board
Some students opted to live in the dorms at their host university. You need to pay around 320-1000 AUD per month. This is a great option for students who have to expend on a budget because of the convenience and an inexpensive, wonderful living environment. If you live on campus so you don’t need to worry about transportation, all of your meals which is included in the price, and you are able to make lots of Australian friends and have fun.
Other international students elect to find housing off-campus, such as apartments or shared-housing units, while others opt for a homestay. A homestay in Australia will cost roughly the same as dorms on campus, around 400-1000AUD per month. Shared housing units can be cheaper, and possibly a better option for students on a tighter budget.
