Important update on Australian Student Visa processing time

The Australian Government has changed its approach to processing student visas for those students intending to study at higher educational, vocational and training institutions. As a result, we expect that there may be longer visa processing times for students submitting visa applications to study at ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç Sydney. Ìý

To avoid delays on your study plan, we encourage you to submit your visa application to the Australian Government as soon as you receive a Confirmation of Enrolment (COE) from us.

For more information about applying for an Australian Student Visa, please visit this page.

FAQs

      • Submitted, complete applications for Term 1, 2026 and Term 2, 2026 will still be assessed and considered for an offer in an upcoming round (including grouped rounds) where program capacity allows.Ìý
      • Incomplete applications forÌýTerm 1, 2026 and Term 2, 2026 must provide all documentation by the relevant offer round deadline. We recommend that applicants submit this information as soon as possible for their best chance to secure an offer.
      • Many undergraduate programs across the University as well as postgraduate programs in Engineering, and Arts, Design and Architecture, have reached capacity forÌýTerm 1, 2026 and Term 2, 2026 with limited offers to be released. Applications (complete or incomplete) for programs that have reached capacity for Term 1, 2026 and Term 2, 2026 will be moved to the next available intake. The first round of Term 3, 2026 offers for these applicants will be made on Thursday, 20 November.
    • Existing offers and conditional offers (English & Genuine Student (GS) Requirement) for Term 1, 2026 and Term 2, 2026 remain valid, and we encourage these offer holders to meet the conditions of their offer as soon as possible and prior to their offer expiring.

    • Deferment requests to Term 1, 2026 or Term 2, 2026 will still be considered but are not guaranteed.

    • ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç will be making offers to eligible postgraduate programs on the basis of six out of eight or seven out of eight semesters studied. Students will need a weighted average mark (WAM) of 5 points above the advertised level to be eligible with 6/8 semesters studied, or a weighted average mark (WAM) of 2 points above the advertised level to be eligible with 7/8 or 5/6 semesters studied.

      Applicants who do not meet this rank will be placed on hold and may be made an offer once they upload their final results.

    • We have altered our policy around predicted grades to widen the qualifications that we accept and have improved the process of assessment. ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç now accepts predicted grades for full offers for the following qualifications:

      • International Baccalaureate (IB)
      • A-Levels
      • Indian CBSE
      • Singapore A-levels
      • NCUK
      • South African NSC

      Students who are completing an approved external English language program can request an extension of their offer deadline until their course is finished.

      Key considerations:
      • A buffer of 2 points above the standard entry requirement is required for a full offer based on predicted grades. Offers will only be issued where this is met or exceeded and all other requirements have been met.
      • Students must provide final results when available, and no later than the ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç term commencement date.
      • If final results do not meet program entry requirements, students may need to:
        • transfer to a program with lower requirements, or
        • explore pathway options such as ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç College Diplomas, or
        • seek study alternatives outside ºÚÁÏÍø´óʼÇ
      Required documentation:

      Forecast results must be presented in the following format:

      • Be printed on official school letterhead and include the institution stamp and signature of the Principal, Registrar or Academic Director.
      • Be dated after 1 May for Term 1 (February intake) and 1 November of the previous year for Term 3 (September intake).
      • For IB Forecast only: IB Forecast results have the total predicted score as well as the individual scores for each subject.
      • The total predicted aggregate must be the equivalent of 2 points higher than the total final aggregate required for admission.
    • Students who meet program entry requirements based on their SAT, AP, or ACT results are now eligible to receive a full or conditional on English offer ahead of their final high school result and proof of and completion of high school studies. Results and proof of high school completion will be required no later than the ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç term commencement date and must be submitted as soon as they become available. This change aims to support students in lodging timely visa applications and re-establishes opportunity to commence their undergraduate studies as planned.

      Additional requirement – enrolment or expected graduation letter

      In addition to sharing SAT/AP/ACT results with ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç via the College Board portal, students must submit a letter from their school meeting the following minimum criteria:

      • printed on official school letterhead
      • bears the official seal of the school
      • includes the student’s full name and date of birth
      • specifies the current stage of study (e.g., Year 11/12)
      • states the expected graduation date
      • specifies the name of the final award or test (e.g., US High School Diploma, Chinese High School Graduation Certificate, Indonesian SMA Certificate)
      Eligibility

      This assessment policy is only available for students completing Year 12 high school qualifications recognised by ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç for direct entry. It excludes:

      • post-secondary diplomas
      • foundation programs
      • unregistered/informal home-schooling up to Year 12
      • GEDi
      • Singapore polytechnics
      • Canadian OSSD delivered online
      • any other bridging or access program
    • If an application is incomplete by the final submission date for that term, it will not meet the requirements and will not be eligible for an offer, resulting in a denial.Ìý

    • To be eligible for consideration in a grouped offer round, applicants must meet the minimum entry requirements for the program as listed on the degree page for the program noting that these requirements are a guide only and do not guarantee an offer will be made.

    • Upon assessment within each offer round, applicants will fall into one of three categories:Ìý

      1. The top percentile of applicants within each grouped offer round will receive an offer of study.
      2. The next best percentile within each grouped offer round will be deferred for consideration in the next available round for that intake, if there is one available.
      3. Applicants deemed to score outside of the top and next best percentiles may receive an offer for any alternative program preference that they have included in their ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç application (if eligible) or notification of an unsuccessful application, allowing clarity in their decision-making process.
    • ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç is unable to provide estimated grouped offer round admissions cut-offs as these will be based on the quality of applicants within each offer round.ÌýOnce the initial three rounds of grouped offers are complete for a program, we will publish indicative scores (including average and lowest scores for receiving an offer) on the relevant program’s degree page on the ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç website.

    • The number of offers made during each round will be determined by program capacity. ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç is unable to share this information with applicants.

    • ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç reserves the right to make ad-hoc offers to exceptional applicants outside of the grouped offer rounds. We will also continue to make offers via UAC for relevant students, with entry ranks reflecting grouped offer round cut-offs.Ìý

    • If you need to complete a 10-week or 15-weekÌýUniversity English Entry Course (UEEC) offered by ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç College and are looking to study one of the high-demand programs in 2026, please submit your complete application by theÌýgrouped round 1Ìýapplication deadline of each term for your best opportunity to commence your study in that term.

    • If you require an English package and would like to defer, you will need to request a deferred offer from ºÚÁÏÍø´óʼÇ. Once you have the deferred offer, it should be provided to ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç College Admissions, who can issue an updated offer for your English course. Please note, deferral requests are not guaranteed to be approved.Ìý

    • ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç expects to make a number of offers through UAC for International Students. The majority of these offers will be made in the UAC December Round 2 offer round for 2026 intake.

    • ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç will release conditional offers based on English language results during regular offer rounds. These offers will include an expiry deadline by which students must meet the conditions - either by submitting their English test results or enrolling in ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç College’sÌý.

      Students who are completing an approved external English language program can request an extension of their offerÌýexpiry deadline until their course is finished.Ìý

    • Students seeking to defer their offer to study at ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç (before accepting) may submit an offer deferral request via the following channels:

      • Students with full offers can now request a deferral viaÌý.
      • Students with conditional offers can submit a deferral request via the online form.

      Please note that offer deferral is not guaranteed and requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Where permitted, offers will only be able to be deferred for a period of up to one year.

      You can find more about deferment and deferral here.

      As a global top 20 university and ranked number one in Australia for employment outcomes (2025 QS World University Rankings), this new academic calendar is designed to meet the changing needs of the broader educational landscape and follows extensive feedback from students, staff and the community over the past 18 months.Ìý

      The new ‘flex-semester’ calendar is a semester structure for our undergraduate students and the majority of postgraduate students, centring on delivering the best learning experiences and outcomes for all our students throughout their lifelong education journey.
