Print out this page and use the table below to help you calculate your total student contribution amount.
You will then need several items of information about your units:

  1. Record the unit codes of the units you are planning to do in 2008 in column A.
  2. Insert the contribution band (column B) and EFTSL value (in column D) for each of your units. You can find these in
    student contribution by unit. Note that the student contribution amounts listed in these tables are for students commencing in 2008 only. Students who commenced before 2008 should refer to the table outlining
    student contribution bands
    .
  3. Determine the student contribution level (column C) for each of the bands you have recorded. Student contribution levels can be found in the student contribution band table.
  4. In column E multiply C x D to calculate your total student contribution amount.
