UWA is ranked #77 in the QS 2025 global rankings, and about #149 in THE’s 2025 ranking. International tuition fees are full-fee paying, and for many undergraduate programmes they are likely in the ballpark of AUD 40,000-55,000/year, which is roughly USD 26,000-36,000/year with current exchange rates (~0.66 USD for 1 AUD).
