You will be manually enrolled into MON2100 after your first semester results have been released, this is referred to as the final offer phase. As per any standard Monash unit, students can withdraw from GIG without any financial penalty prior to census. The census and important dates are noted below:
2023 Winter program
- Teaching period: Monday 29th May - Sunday 23rd July 2023
- Census date / 'Withdrawn early' ends: Friday 9th June 2023
- 'Withdrawn late' starts: Saturday 10th June 2023
- 'Withdrawn fail' starts: Saturday 1st July
2023/2024 Summer Program
- Teaching period: Friday 20th October 2023 - Friday 16th February 2024
- Census date / 'Withdrawn early' ends: Monday 13th November 2023
- 'Withdrawn late' starts: Tuesday 14th November 2023
- 'Withdrawn fail' starts: Saturday 30th December 2023
All students are required to attend a compulsory pre-departure session that will be held during Swot Vac.
The 2023/2024 Summer program enrolment is considered part of the 2023 teaching period (i.e. Summer A), even if you have been allocated to a block in January 2024. You may be able to consider doing fewer units in semester 2 but will need to check to ensure this doesn’t have implications for your visa.
Only a faculty course advisor can provide you with course advice. If you are unsure about how GIG will fit into your degree, we encourage you to submit a Course Advice Request Form so that a faculty course advisor can provide this advice to you.
