Victorian students who enrol in a diploma or advanced diploma course who are already qualified at that level or higher — such as someone with a social work degree who wants to do a diploma in youth work — will now be charged full fees, which could be as high as $10,000 a year.

For government-subsidised students, who can defer their fees, the cost of diplomas and advanced diplomas are up from $877 to $1500, and will rise to $2500 by 2012.
