Students who are considering applying for an early or alternate exit will need to speak to their faculty advisor. An early or alternate exit is a way of leaving a course without having fulfilled all of its requirements, but still receiving an award of some kind.

Stay connected after you graduate with our 220,000-strong Alumni Community. Get involved in social networking, professional development events or volunteer your time to give back to the next generation of Deakin students.
