Lonsdale's tuition fee is 13000 aud. Accommodation for the whole program is offered at 5500aud.

I have to check on that refund tho. Did you get yours?

I haven't received it yet. My RO told me that if I used a credit card, then it should automatically be refunded in that account. :)

It's convenient for Lonsdale to offer accommodation. Are the clinical placements within Melbourne City or regional Victoria? What else is included in the 5500AUD?

Amaree, Have you been included in the October batch? Good on you! Clinical Placement is with the Wimmera Health Care Group! Been there... done that! :-) See you around December ! :-)

Hi Majai, it sounds like you really had fun in MCIE! :) May I ask how much is the BP is MCIE? How is the process of applying or having a working visa? Did they offer you a job right away before you graduated? When do nurses usually apply for ANMAC assessment? Thanks in advance!

when I entered... it was 11,500... I'm not sure if they increase their rate to 12,000. Accommodation for the 2 weeks lecture was 240... and the 10 weeks clinical placement accommodation (including wifi, electricity, water) was 1,360.

Clinical Placement was assured with MCIE because the AHPRA accredited IRON provider is Wimmera Health Care Group which is a hospital/aged care. I applied for the job and was interviewed because their priority are the Au citizens and PR. Since the position has not been filled up even when it has been publicly advertised, we were gladly taken in.

Hi! Thank you for your replies! I will be having my BP with MCIE this month. Having read your messages boosted up my positivity. And I badly need some. Thank you.

On another note, yes, they have increased their program fee. It's now 12500. Clinical placement accommodation is 20aud/night. I don't know about that 240aud accommodation for the 2 weeks lecture. They only recommended homestay for me but I found it very expensive. So I opted to look for a place in airbnb.

Good luck to everyone who will pursue BP this year. Please keep us posted and advise us what we're supposed to do after our turn to take BP.

Sorry... the accommodation was 420 for 2 weeks... they got it from AirBnb as well.... it was in Footscray and very near the train station. I suggest that the accommodation you take are those outside the CBD but near train stations.
