Enrolment details

[Print-friendly version]

Commencing students: once you have been made an offer to study at QUT you will need to enrol in units specific to the course you have chosen.

Continuing students: you will be asked to enrol in subjects for the following year's teaching periods.

Your enrolment. Your responsibility.

QUT staff will provide every form of assistance possible, but it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure the accuracy and validity of your enrolment. The Course Summary Sheet for your course is the authoritative source on what units need to be completed and the order of progression required to get you to graduation.

Ensuring you enrol correctly

QUT Virtual does not validate your unit selection/s for correct progression and course completion. Consult your Course Summary Sheet to ensure units you enrol in count towards the completion requirements and rules of your course.

Transitioning between an old and new course or out of step with standard program (due to credit, changes to study load or incurring fails): pay particular attention to information provided by your faculty and seek further advice where required.

If in doubt, contact your course coordinator or designated contact as listed in your Course Summary Sheet.

What are the consequences of not enrolling correctly?

Enrolling in the wrong unit/s may result in you not meeting the requirements for course completion. This can result in:

• denied or delayed graduation
• an extended period of study in order to complete the required units
• payment of extra fees
• visa impacts for International students
• extra consumption of Student Learning Entitlements (SLE) for Commonwealth Supported Students.

Your responsibilities

Enrolment program

You must provide an accurate enrolment program each year which complies with course guidelines as outlined in your Course Summary Sheet.

Mailing address

You must provide an accurate and reliable mailing address for University correspondence and promptly notify the University of any change of address.

Failure to receive a notice because of change of address is not a sufficient excuse for missing a deadline or obligation. The University will deem that correspondence issued to your recorded mailing address has been received.

Email address

You must activate your QUT student email account as it will be used for a range of correspondence and notification by the University including Library notices and fee statements.

University rules

It is important to be aware of all Student Rules and administrative dates to avoid any financial or academic penalties.
