How to accept your offer
Offer information
You must follow the instructions below to formalise your offer. If you are unsure about whether to accept, reject or defer your offer, or to participate in Deakin's gap-year program, speak to a course adviser, who can talk you through your options before you make a final decision.
To accept your offer
If you are an on-campus student, you need to attend the Course Advice and Enrolment Session specified in your Deakin offer email.

Learning about your course
You are encouraged to learn more about your course by visiting the handbook. Find information about your course by using the 'Course search' facility on the left hand menu.
On-Campus course advice and enrolment sessions
Your Deakin offer email will detail the time, date and venue of the Course Advice and Enrolment Session for your course. This session gives you the opportunity to speak to your course advisers, who can help you with unit (subject) selections and provide an overview of your course. Allow at least 15 to 30 minutes to park and find your enrolment session venue.
To reject your offer
If you are unsure about whether to accept your offer or not, speak to a Course Adviser. If you decide to reject your offer, no action is required. Do not attend the Course Advice and Enrolment Session or enrol online.
What happens if I get a later round offer (i.e. a Main Round offer)?
If you accept a later round offer into a different course at Deakin or another institution, you will need to withdraw from your initial course. To do this, download an Enrolment details variation form and send the completed and signed form to:
Admissions, Enrolments and Records
Division of Student Administration
Deakin University
Locked Bag 20000
GEELONG VIC 3220
This is very important because if you do not formally withdraw from the course, you may be liable for outstanding fees. Check with the University after submitting the form to ensure your request has been processed.
