Pre-Enrolment
All currently enrolled students who intend to remain enrolled in the following year in the same course will be asked to pre-enrol during semester 2. Pre-enrolment begins in early October and is usually completed via MyUni. Watch your Sydney Mail account and letter boxes for instructions at the beginning of October.
Your pre-enrolment choices are checked and confirmed in January each year. Students who either do not pre-enrol, or who “fail” pre-enrolment (i.e. make inappropriate subject choices or do not satisfy progression rules) must enrol in person in February.
If you require further information, please make contact with the relevant staff member at Nursing Student Services in the first instance. For email enquiries please use your Sydney Mail account and include your full name and student number.
MPhil and PhD student pre-enrolment enquiries can be directed to the Student Services Unit, Room 230, Edward Ford Building, between 9.00am and 4.30pm weekdays or phone +61 2 9351 3132.
