Query about University fees Australia....?

Unfortunately for you being a citizen of the Commonwealth doesn't mean you get stuff for free in another country. Don't get me wrong you may be a very deserving person, but NZ citizen's taxes don't go to funding our Australian Education Institutions. Under the current arrangement you are cled as an International Student, therefore you are a full fee paying student. Australian have both the option of full fee paying both here and overseas, most elect to be Commonwealth [of Australia] sponsored, meaning they have to pay the money back through their taxes. Yes the fees are paying less than International Students, but their parents have contributed taxes to the Education System; I know new immigrates are entitled to Commonwealth support but only after they have contributed to our Nations tax system [It's a little bit more complicated that this sentence].
