If your enrolment is at the Mallett Street Campus, you are advised to use public transport, as parking is limited around the campus. You can catch one of several bus routes along Parramatta Road and get off at the Mallett Street intersection. Alternatively, you can catch a train to Newtown Station and walk.
Pharmacy Building, Camperdown Campus (A15)
If your enrolment is at the Pharmacy Building on Camperdown Campus, you are advised to catch public transport. You can take any bus which goes along Parramatta Rd to the bus stop at the Footbridge.
What to bring
On enrolment day, please make sure you bring:
- your offer letter/UAC acceptance slip
- 100 points of identification (see here for further information)
- your tax file number, or evidence that you have applied for one (required for Australian citizens only)
Academic advice and choosing units of study
Academic advice will be available during your enrolment day. You can also plan ahead and familiarise yourself with the units of study/patterns of study for your course. The more prepared you are, the quicker you will complete your enrolment on the day.
Nursing Handbook: contains the rules of your course, unit of study (subject) descriptions and key policies
Unit of Study Search: allows you to search online for different units of study and to read their descriptions
Patterns of study: available under the information for your course
Combined degree students please note:
In your first year, you will be selecting your units from the undergraduate part of your program (eg Science, Arts, Health Sciences). For Arts and Science, you are encouraged to start considering what area you may wish to major in, as this could influence the units of study you select in your first year.
The Faculty of Science has also produced a guide for choosing your first year units of study.
Other enrolments
If you are commencing an MPhil or PhD, you will be enrolling through the Postgraduate Student Administration Unit (PSAU).
If you are commencing a graduate certificate, graduate diploma, advanced learning master's or Bachelor of Nursing (Post-registration), you will be required to enrol in person at Mallett St Campus.
Proxy enrolment
If your course requires you to enrol in person and you are not able to attend your allocated enrolment day, you can arrange for a proxy to enrol on your behalf. Please read the proxy information, download the proxy authorisation form and follow the instructions carefully before proceeding with this option. If you are not able to attend and cannot arrange a proxy, please contact our Student Administration Manager for further advice.
Varying your enrolment
Once you enrol, you are responsible for ensuring that the information about your course, academic year and units of study are correct at the beginning of the semester. If a change occurs, you are responsible for amending your details. You will be sent a Confirmation of Enrolment notice after the initial enrolment period and following any variations to the enrolment.
Forms
You can find out more about varying your enrolment and other applications/requests such as suspending studies or discontinuation. These all require correct processes and specific forms to be filled out.
Returning to University after discontinuation
If you are not enrolled and do not have an approved suspension you are deemed to have discontinued your course and must reapply for admission to the degree. There is no automatic right of re-entry into the course.
International students should apply through the International Student Office.
Local combined degree students who have let their candidature lapse will need to reapply through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC).
Local Bachelor of Nursing (Post-registration) and postgraduate students should apply directly to Sydney Nursing School.
Please note that students who have outstanding debts* or who have had to show cause**, must have these matters finalised before their application will be considered.
Orientation
The University runs a variety of orientation and welcome activities for commencing students.

Fees
Domestic students
If you are an Australian citizen or permanent resident, a New Zealand citizen, or the holder of a permanent humanitarian visa, you are referred to as a domestic student.
Our combined bachelor's/master's programs, the Master of Nursing and our graduate certificates are Commonwealth supported for domestic students. This means most of the cost of your course fees is paid by the government but you must also contribute towards this cost yourself. Our graduate diplomas and advanced learning master's courses are Commonwealth supported for domestic students. (Note: Clinical Trials Practice has limited Commonwealth supported places.)
You are required to pay your course fees up-front each semester. Following enrolment, you will be issued with an invoice and a due date for the payment. However, if you are an Australian citizen, you can request a government loan to cover this payment. This loan is referred to as HECS-HELP for Commonwealth supported students, and FEE-HELP for full-fee students.
Further information regarding Commonwealth support, HECS-HELP and FEE-HELP is available from the going to uni website, or you can search our Ask Sydney FAQs.
International students
You are required to pay your course fees up-front each semester. Following enrolment, you will be issued with an invoice and a due date for the payment.
