Frequently asked questions for Semester 2/2008 intake

What happens if I cannot attend the nominated registration and enrolment date?

You must apply for permission to register and enrol late by emailing latereg@adm.monash.edu.au.

Please include the following information in your email:

• Your family name, given name and Monash student ID number
• An explanation as to why you cannot attend registration and enrolment
• Expected date you can come to Monash to register and enrol (University opening hours are 9 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday).

Your request will be assessed and a response will be emailed within a minimum of three working days.  Late registration is subject to approval and permission is not guaranteed.

If you arrive after the nominated date, class availability will be limited. You may not get your first preference with your timetable and electives.

Attention: Only students with written permission from International Recruitment Services will be allowed to register and enrol after the nominated registration and enrolment date. Proxy or online enrolments will not be accepted under any circumstances for international students.

Failure to attend the nominated registration date without late registration permission will result in students not being permitted to commence their course this intake.

If you have accepted one of the following courses you must arrive on time. Late enrolment will not be granted for:

• All courses from the Faculty of Business and Economics
• All postgraduate Law courses (class commences 8 July except Master of Laws [Juris Doctor] which begins 29 August)
• Bachelor of Biomedical Science (course code 2230).

Where do I go to register if I have been permitted to arrive late?

The following locations are for late registration. After you have registered, staff will direct you to your Faculty for enrolment.

• Berwick - Health, Wellbeing and Development, Building 930
• Caulfield - Student Services, Building A, Ground Floor
• Clayton - Student Services, Building 10
• Gippsland - Health, Wellbeing and Development, Building 3N
• Peninsula - Student Services, Building C

What if I cannot attend the first day of semester -- 14 July 2008?

Enrolments after commencement of classes are not allowed. Students who are facing exceptional circumstances may apply for arrival after 14 July 2008. Please apply for late registration as previously stated.

By arriving after the semester starting date, you will miss enrolment, orientation and essential academic activities including lectures, tutorials, class preparations and preliminary reading. This may have a significant impact on your studies and your results. It is your responsibility to ensure that you discuss with your lecturer/tutor any work you have missed. Class availability will be limited and you may not get first preference with your timetable and electives.

Due to recent high demand for Business and Economics courses, the faculty is very strict with enrolment dates.

Please be prepared, if you cannot attend the nominated enrolment date the faculty may not permit you to enter the course.

Can I leave Australia after enrolment?

Monash does not encourage students to leave Australia between registration and enrolment and the commencement of classes. This is because you will miss important orientation and information sessions. If you are considering returning home after registration and enrolment, please speak to your faculty when you enrol. Monash will not be responsible for any consequences should you choose to leave against our recommendations.

What do I need to do before my registration and enrolment?

Prior to your registration and enrolment, you must set up you Monash computer account. After this, you must complete an online questionnaire before arrival. Once you have completed the questionnaire, you will be issued with a transaction number which you must bring along to the registration.

Orientation

Orientation (or 'O Week' as it is often called) is a very valuable program which consists of information sessions, tours and events designed to help you get to know Monash University and, in particular, your campus.
