Enrol or Apply?
Enrolment is the official acceptance of a place at the University of Sydney. Before students enrol in a postgraduate program they will need to apply for a place in that program. New postgraduate students will need to:
apply for a program -> receive an offer letter -> enrol on their allocated day
Postgraduate Enrolment, Re-enrolment and Pre-enrolment - 2008
Pre-enrolment
Continuing undergraduate and postgraduate students (those going into their second & third years of study) will be asked to pre-enrol at the end of Semester 2. Pre-enrolment takes place once a year.
Students can pre-enrol online using their MyUni account (recommended) or by submitting a paper pre-enrolment form to the Faculty Office.
2008 Pre-enrolment Information
Re-enrolment
Unsuccessful pre-enrollers or those who missed pre-enrolment will need to re-enrol in person. Students returning after an absence will also need to re-enrol.
The University sends out re-enrolment information in late January to all students who failed pre-enrolment.
Students who did not attempt to pre-enrol may not receive this information and should contact the Faculty of Science Office in late January for re-enrolment instructions.
Students returning after an absence should follow the re-enrolment instructions on their suspension/leave of absence approval letter.
Where is enrolment and what do I bring?
The Venue
The venue for all the postgraduate enrolments listed above will be Rooms 250/251 on Level 2 of the Carslaw Building.
This venue is different to the Faculty of Science Office which is also in Carslaw
How long will enrolment take?
Unfortunately this is impossible to answer, if the enrolment site is busy it will take longer. Students should allow a couple of hours.
Do I have to come on these days to enrol?/I won't be available to enrol on these days.
Postgraduate students should make every effort to come on their allocated day. This is when the resources have been allocated to advise and enrol students. Read about proxy enrolment for students who can't be there in person.
What should I bring to enrolment?
- Your Offer Letter
- Your Tax File Number (if you elect to take out a FEE-HELP loan)
- A method to pay your fees (credit card or personal/bank cheque)
- A blue or black ball-point pen
Enrolment consists of two stages:
- Stage 1. Science Faculty Site (Carslaw Building)
Consultation with Faculty and/or School or Discipline advisers re: the subjects you plan to study. Use the Science Handbook to find out more about your degree program and the units of study available in it. Faculty staff will then enrol you in the units of study you have chosen.
- Stage 2. Payment Site
After you have been enrolled in your units of study by the Faculty staff they will direct you to the payment site. This is run by the Student Centre and more information about this is here: Student Centre enrolment information.
After enrolment/changing your enrolment
At enrolment you will receive a MyUni login and information about your Sydney University e-mail account.
After you have been enrolled by the Faculty staff you can use the MyUni system to change your enrolment online until the census dates.
Please check your University e-mail account regularly for updates and information.
