For five years, many Australian university students have been watching the amount they have to pay for their studies with alarm and despair.
In response, the Senate is considering a Greens bill to slash high university student contributions for arts, law and business students.
The bill proposes to reverse student contribution increases imposed in 2021 by the “Job-ready Graduates” policy. This includes doubling the cost of arts degrees – which now cost more than A$50,000 as a result.
