Pre-enrolment information for postgraduate students

Pre-enrolment is compulsory for all students who are enrolled this year and who intend to continue their studies next year in the same degree.

When do I need to pre-enrol?

If you are CONTINUING YOUR STUDY IN 2010 in either semester, you are required to pre-enrol in the units of study you wish to undertake in 2009 no later than:

  • Friday 30 October 2009 in person
    Students who cannot pre-enrol via their MyUni accounts (usually because they need special permission forms signed) can submit a paper pre-enrolment form at the Faculty Office before this date
  • Friday 13 November 2009 via MyUni (recommended for most students)
    Students having problems with enrolment on the web should:
    - check the up-to-date units of study to find the problem
    - check their degree requirements to find the problem
    - enrol on paper if possible

NB: Students will notice that the paper pre-enrolment deadline is before the online pre-enrolment deadline. Students are advised not to wait until after the paper pre-enrolment deadline has passed before trying to pre-enrol - if you are able to pre-enrol via MyUni, you may do so from the beginning of October.

Why should you pre-enrol?

A successful pre-enrolment may save you some unnecessary anxiety next year.

You also can avoid waiting at a lengthy enrolment session if you have pre-enrolled successfully.

Postgraduate coursework and research students should ensure that they have pre-enrolled before the deadlines above.

Paper pre-enrolment

Students enrolled in the following programs must pre-enrol on paper:

  • Applied Science (Environmental Science)
  • Doctor of Clinical Psychology/Master of Science (DCP/MSc)

Research Students

  • If you are a PhD or MSc (research) student and expect to lodge your thesis by or on 31 March 2010, you do not need to pre-enrol.
  • If you are a PhD or MSc (research) student and expect to lodge your thesis on or after 1 April 2010, you must pre-enrol.

I've suspended my degree until next semester - what do I do?

If you've suspended your enrolment (paused your studies) in your degree, and plan to resume your studies next semester, you will not be able to pre-enrol.
Instead, you'll need to lodge a recommencement application form with the Faculty of Science Office.
