As a very rough guide, a participant in Brockport's Macquarie Program will need to budget approximately $300 to $400 AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS per month, to pay for daily local travel, textbooks and other school supplies, entertainment, meals and other necessities.
This estimate does not include the purchase of clothing or travel in Australia (outside of any field trips organized by the program).
The group flight will cost participants between $1,200 and $1,500 (depending on departure/return dates, the point of origin of any connecting flights in the US, etc.)
The actual amount that you will spend depends heavily on your style of living and will vary with each individual's personal spending habits, entertainment preferences and travel choices.
Financial aid applies towards fees.
*Enrollment in most Science and Engineering programs at Macquarie are at an additional extra charge.
**For Visa purposes, all Australia study abroad students MUST purchase the mandatory insurance coverage (presently $150.00 per semester).
***Varies depending on the SUNY campus at which the participant pays tuition.
