How to accept or defer an offer
How to accept your offer
International applicants who receive an offer from the International Centre can download the Offer Acceptance Information booklet (PDF*, 1.3mb, 12 pages).
This includes an acceptance form to be returned to the International Centre.
Alternatively you can contact the International Centre to have a copy posted to you.
International students who applied through VTAC should consult the step-by-step guide to VTAC offers.
What if I want to be considered for another course?
If you have decided that you would like to be considered for a course other than the one that you have been offered, please complete the Change of Preference form (PDF*, 20kb, 1 page) and return it to the University by Wednesday 16 January 2008.
You will only be considered for entry into this new course if the course was not listed on your VTAC preference list or was listed as a lower preference than the course you have been offered, and the prerequisite subject requirements and Guaranteed entry score have been met.
How to defer your offer
Circumstances sometimes mean that you need to commence your studies later than you originally planned.
You may apply to defer your offer for up to one year from the commencement date on your original letter of offer.
If you find you need to defer, please complete the Deferral Request form or write to International Admissions (see below) requesting a deferral stating your preferred commencement date.
If permission to defer your offer is granted, you will be notified in writing by the University that your place has been secured.
Applying for a different course
If you defer your offer of a place in a course and later wish to be considered for a different course from the one you deferred, you will need to submit a written request to:
