If you are paying in Australian dollars, you can use BPay, a secure way to to pay from your cheque or savings account. General information can be found on the BPay website.

If you’re an international student, or you're overseas, you can pay your fees online through HSBC or Western Union.
HSBC is currently not available to Chinese students who are paying in their local currency.
If you choose to make a payment by Western Union or HSBC, please allow a minimum of 5-10 business days for your payment to be receipted.
HSBC payment process
HSBC’s portal will provide you with a unique bank account number at the time you make a ‘promise to pay’. This locks your payment amount in local currency.
We recommend you write this number down, as you’ll need it to pay your fees.
You have 1 week from the time you make a ‘promise to pay’ to pay your fees at the agreed exchange rate. If you make your payment after the 1 week period has expired, or if you pay more than the pre-agreed amount, the prevailing exchange rate will be applied.
You are able to make partial payments. If this applies to you, you’ll need to make all payments using the unique bank account number you received when you first made your ‘promise to pay’.
