Start by logging into StudentConnect. Select the enrol button, look for your course and the correct academic period and select 'begin enrolment'.

Read and accept the terms and conditions, confirm your course enrolment and verify your USI (if applicable).

Please note: if you have been offered more than one course, you should only enrol in the one you wish to study. You may need to discontinue the other course (unless you are waiting to graduate from that course).

Confirm or update your contact details, ensuring your name and address are correct. You should also check your campus and mode of study. You can opt-in to receive your results via SMS (you must add your mobile phone number in the ‘postal address’ section).

You'll also be asked to answer some services questions (if applicable) and some government statistics questions. You will need to complete each question except Question 7 which only applies to domestic students; international students can skip this question and continue to Question 8.

If you’re a domestic student requesting a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP), you must complete an Electronic Commonwealth Assistance Form (eCAF). If you want to defer your tuition fees, you’ll have the option to also request HECS-HELP. If you have a domestic fee-paying place, you can request FEE-HELP, or you can skip this step. International students do not have to complete an eCAF.

Visit Government HELP schemes for information on CSP, HECS-HELP and FEE-HELP.

In this step, you must check your information is correct, answer the questions and click the eCAF submit button. You will then receive an email from the eCAF portal with a passkey within 24 hours.

• Login to the eCAF portal with your passkey and date of birth.
• Answer the questions in each step.
• Verify your email address by entering it and then finding the email in your inbox.
• Verify your USI and verify your Tax File Number (if applicable).
• Indicate if you are applying for HECS-HELP, FEE-HELP or if you are paying your fees upfront.
• Acknowledge the declarations.

Once finished, you’ll be emailed a PDF copy of your eCAF.

Return to StudentConnect and click the ‘Retrieve’ button to bring back your eCAF details from the portal.

Please note: if you also need a loan to help you pay for your Student Services and Amenities Fee, you will need to submit another eCAF for SA-HELP. Visit Student Services and Amenities Fee for information on this fee and SA-HELP.

Now, it's time to add your units. Search for units by inputting the unit code or unit title. When you find the correct unit (make sure you check the campus and study period), tick the box and click the button to add the unit. It is helpful to have your course Handbook entry or course map open in a second tab to refer back to.

Once you’ve added a unit, it will say ‘one pending change’. Continue to add all your units for the study period or year.

In this step, you can also add a 'major, minor or specialisation', but most courses don't require this. If necessary, you can add this group of units by searching for it in the same way you would a single unit. You can learn more about majors, minors and specialisations on our dedicated webpage.

You can change your units up until the last date to add a unit (refer to your study period dates in the Handbook).

If you receive an error during this step, you may have encountered a rule breach. For more information, visit rule breaches and invalid units or discuss the error with a student adviser.

Once all units are added, confirm your enrolment by clicking ‘finish enrolment'. The status of your units will now say enrolled and you will be able to view a receipt and transaction number.

If you don't see a receipt on the screen, double check your units have been added correctly. You can also export a PDF of your enrolment by clicking on 'print evidence of enrolment' under 'enrolment' in the left hand menu. This .pdf file will show you what units you are enrolled in. If the units are not enrolled, you need to revisit your unit selection.

Please note: your enrolment status may be inactive. This is because you are not enrolled in the current teaching period but a future teaching period. If your units are enrolled, you are enrolled. Your enrolment status will change to enrolled once we transition to the next teaching period.
