Accept your offer
If your offer is conditional, you'll need to meet the conditions of your offer before accepting it. Once you have the documentation to meet your offer condition you can upload the documentation directly into your application.
Instructions on how to upload your documentation.
If you have been sent an unconditional offer, you can choose to accept it online immediately.
To accept your offer online:
- To accept your course offer, complete and submit your acceptance offer form. If you have also received a tuition fee remission scholarship offer and you accept that offer, you will not need to pay a tuition fee deposit. If your scholarship includes Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) the University will arrange a policy on your behalf with our preferred provider, BUPA.
- If your scholarship does not include OSHC you will need to either pay to have OSHC arranged for you by the University or purchase OSHC with an approved provider for the duration of your student visa. If you require couples or family OSHC and your scholarship provides only single level cover, you will need to pay the additional amount to have OSHC for your family members arranged by the University.
- If you have not received a scholarship, you will need to provide a tuition fee deposit and Overseas Student Health Cover payment or arrange your own visa length OSHC policy
You'll then receive a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) from the University. You'll need your CoE to apply for a student visa.
