Enrolment and re-enrolment

Commencing students are advised of the date and time of enrolment by mail. Students are expected to read the degree regulations which can be found towards the back of this handbook. Students should study the handbook and any course information documents available from the faculty.
Students who are unable to enrol/re-enrol on the specified date must obtain written permission from the relevant faculty office. Students who have not enrolled or re-enrolled by the published enrolment/re-enrolment date shall be deemed to have forfeited their places in the course and will be recorded as discontinuing students. Such students must reapply as new students on the appropriate application forms if they wish to resume studies.
At Caulfield and Peninsula students are required to undertake subjects in the order outlined in the course progression for their degrees. Class allocations for lectures, classes and tutorials will be made at the time of enrolment.
Continuing students are sent a pre-enrolment form in the mail during second semester which contains their expected study program for the following year. When results are released in December, students are asked to attend the campus to confirm their re-enrolled program and to complete their class-listing. Any request to vary their study program should be taken up with the relevant administrative officer on or before the day of re-enrolment.
At Clayton students who are offered a place in a course will, after collecting their enrolment forms, attend an interview with an enrolment adviser, who approves the selection of subjects for the first-year of the course. The function of the enrolment adviser is not to select a student's subjects but to give any help and advice that may be required and to ensure that a rational choice is made.
Continuing students are sent a pre-enrolment form in the mail during second semester. Pre-enrolling students may see a faculty adviser to seek advice on their courses or they may choose to return the completed form that lists their subject selection for the following year. In December, only students who have failed a second semester subject need to attend the campus to amend their enrolment.
At Gippsland commencing students are provided with course advice at orientation. Distance education students are encouraged to contact student advisers.
At Berwick commencing students are provided with course information by mail prior to enrolment and are assisted by an enrolment adviser on enrolment day. Continuing students pre-enrol on the Berwick campus in October/November each year with the assistance of enrolment advisers. In December, only students who have failed a second semester subject need to attend the campus to amend their enrolment.
Any student wishing to take an overloaded program of study in any semester or to undertake subjects additional to those prescribed in the degree program, for example from other institutions, summer semester, distance education or open learning subjects, must obtain permission first, in writing from the course coordinator, unless otherwise indicated in the course outline.
