Course requirements

Before you enrol, you need to plan your course. Thinking ahead and mapping out what you'll study is key to succeeding in your course.

To plan your course:

  • read your handbook for your course requirements, including whether you need to choose a program, major(s), minor, specialisation, or units of study
  • understand your course structure and how to choose your units
  • check whether you can apply for credit or recognition of prior learning, if you've completed previous study or have relevant work experience

What you need to enrol

Have these details and documents on hand before you start enrolling in Sydney Student.

All students need the following to enrol.

  • UniKey and password
    You need your UniKey and password to log in to Sydney Student and get started. As long as you’ve accepted your offer, we’ll send these details to you in an email once enrolment has opened for you.
  • Unique Student Identifier (USI)
    You need a USI to study at University in Australia. This is an individual education identifier issued by the Australian Government, and is in the format of a reference number made up of ten numbers and letters.
  • Contact details
    The first part of enrolment involves providing your personal details, so make sure you have these ready. You need to include full details of someone we can contact in an emergency.

If you're a domestic student, you also need the following.

  • Tax File Number (TFN)
    If you’re eligible for a Government HELP loan (HECS-HELP, FEE-HELP or SA-HELP), you'll need your TFN so you can apply for your loan as part of your enrolment

If you're an international student, you also need the following.

  • Electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (eCoE)
    You need a valid eCoE before you can enrol. Make sure you enrol in a full-time study load to meet the requirements of your visa.
