The University Council in its November 2001 meeting approved the following fees and fee structure for implementation with immediate effect as of the
beginning of the 2002 academic year: Within this fee structure there is no distinction between international or expatriate and national students, and that all pay the same amount of charged annual fees.
Postgraduate diplomas and honours pay the same compulsory fees as the undergraduates - K880.00 per year and for accommodation as shown below.

For every year a candidate who is a registered postgraduate student is required to re-enrol in a degree program in order to complete the requirements of that program he/she is undertaking. And for each year the appropriate registration fees as shown above are applied. If a candidate enrols in a Postgraduate Degree Program towards the end of the year, he/she is still required to pay the full registration fee for that year and re-registration fee for each subsequent year. Candidates taking leave for training by attachment as is the case in Medicine (whether within PNG and/or abroad) are still required to re-register and pay the full required fees. Failure to comply would result in being deregistered. Deregistered candidates are not allowed to sit for any exams nor will graduate and also the University would not recognize any of the work done during the year. Re-enrolment fees are not refundable. If a candidate discontinues his/her program, no refund is allowed. Suspended candidates will be required a fine of K50.00 before they are re-registered and such fines are also non refundable.
The fees are already included in the overall tuition fees.
