This comparison prices the same standard stay at each English language school in Sydney for 2027: the standard course, homestay in a single room, and the compulsory fees. Across the four durations the course never changes: only the length of stay varies, so that the rows can be compared. When a school does not sell exactly this formula, its row uses the closest formula it does sell and names it under the school's name. *Gross prices, before any promotions, excluding flights and transfers. The average price per week is the total divided by the number of weeks.* | Duration | School | Course | Course + fees | Accommodation | Total | Average price per week | Quote | |---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---| | 2 weeks | [ELC](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-elc) course: Intensive General English; accommodation: breakfast | from 980.00 AUD | from 1,320.00 AUD | from 880.00 AUD | from 2,200.00 AUD ≈ 1,383 EUR | from 1,100.00 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=1074&schoolName=ELC&program=1000001023&programName=Intensive%20General%20English&city=Sydney&country=AU) | | 2 weeks | [Lexis](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-lexis) | from 1,120.00 AUD | from 1,515.00 AUD | from 1,080.00 AUD | from 2,595.00 AUD ≈ 1,632 EUR | from 1,297.50 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=958&schoolName=Lexis&program=1000003145&programName=General%20English%20Full%20Time%20-%20Sydney&city=Sydney&country=Australia) | | 4 weeks | [ELC](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-elc) course: Intensive General English; accommodation: breakfast | from 1,960.00 AUD | from 2,300.00 AUD | from 1,760.00 AUD | from 4,060.00 AUD ≈ 2,553 EUR | from 1,015.00 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=1074&schoolName=ELC&program=1000001023&programName=Intensive%20General%20English&city=Sydney&country=AU) | | 4 weeks | [Lexis](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-lexis) | from 2,240.00 AUD | from 2,635.00 AUD | from 1,940.00 AUD | from 4,575.00 AUD ≈ 2,877 EUR | from 1,143.75 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=958&schoolName=Lexis&program=1000003145&programName=General%20English%20Full%20Time%20-%20Sydney&city=Sydney&country=Australia) | | 8 weeks | [ELC](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-elc) course: Intensive General English; accommodation: breakfast | from 3,840.00 AUD | from 4,210.00 AUD | from 3,520.00 AUD | from 7,730.00 AUD ≈ 4,861 EUR | from 966.25 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=1074&schoolName=ELC&program=1000001023&programName=Intensive%20General%20English&city=Sydney&country=AU) | | 8 weeks | [Lexis](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-lexis) | from 4,280.00 AUD | from 4,780.00 AUD | from 3,660.00 AUD | from 8,440.00 AUD ≈ 5,307 EUR | from 1,055.00 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=958&schoolName=Lexis&program=1000003145&programName=General%20English%20Full%20Time%20-%20Sydney&city=Sydney&country=Australia) | | 12 weeks | [ELC](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-elc) course: Intensive General English; accommodation: breakfast | from 5,760.00 AUD | from 6,190.00 AUD | from 5,280.00 AUD | from 11,470.00 AUD ≈ 7,213 EUR | from 955.83 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=1074&schoolName=ELC&program=1000001023&programName=Intensive%20General%20English&city=Sydney&country=AU) | | 12 weeks | [Lexis](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/students-adults/schools/australia/sydney/english-language-school-lexis) | from 6,420.00 AUD | from 6,980.00 AUD | from 5,380.00 AUD | from 12,360.00 AUD ≈ 7,772 EUR | from 1,030.00 AUD | [Build my quote](https://www.move-and-study.com/en/booking?school=958&schoolName=Lexis&program=1000003145&programName=General%20English%20Full%20Time%20-%20Sydney&city=Sydney&country=Australia) | **Current promotion — ELC:** −49.00 AUD (2 weeks), −98.00 AUD (4 weeks), −192.00 AUD (8 weeks), −288.00 AUD (12 weeks) off the total stay, for a booking made before 31 December 2026 — amounts recorded on 15 November 2026.
