Who should enrol?

• All students who are wishing to study during 2013.
• If you are anticipating an offer in another course within Deakin University/other institution you should still enrol in your first offer. (Refer to question below.)
• If you wish to commence study in Trimester 2 2013 you need to contact someone on the contact list below to assist you to intermit your course for Trimester 1 2013, and help you enrol for Trimester2 2013. (Note: students that wish to intermit should seek course advice on the effect of mid-year commencement on the duration of your course and the type of subjects that can be chosen.)

What should I do if I enrolled in my first offer, but I receive another offer in another course within Deakin University/other institution?

It is your responsibility (as the student) to contact someone on the contact list (see below) to assist you to withdraw from your first offer. You need to tell them that you have taken an offer in another course, and you wish to withdraw from your first offer.

Deadline to withdraw from your course is 31st March 2013.

What is the deadline to enrol?

What happens if I don’t enrol by the deadline?

If you don’t enrol, you risk losing your place at Deakin University and you will have to re-apply for entry.

STAR (Student Timetable Allocation and Registration)

Student Timetable Allocation and Registration (STAR) is Deakin University's personalised timetabling system that allows students enrolled in on-campus units to register online for activity groups including lectures, tutorials, seminars etc.

(Note: off-campus and online units do not have classes scheduled and therefore will not appear on the STAR system.)

You can access STAR via the Student Connect website. (Use the same username and password you used to enrol.)
