Does the increase in the fees at UNSW affect those starting in 2005 - or are they exempt? I know the people that started in 2004 and before are exempt...
na you arent exempt from the increases next year.

i don't think ACU did this year. i remember reading about it last year. not sure what the future holds, but at least i know i'm "safe" - teaching and nursing are capped :)

the max uni fees can be increased from the old hecs fees payrate is 25% so if unis like usyd, uts unsw etc have increased to the 25%, then thats it unless the government wasnt to change it again.
Korn, most unis have increased theirs already, its only uws who has taken to this now.
and yes, pre-2005 students arent charged the new fee strucutre, only those students who started 2005 and beyond. so pre-2005 are charged as normal as other years.
