Important Information

During the comment process you are connected to a database. Like internet banking, the session that connects you to the database may time-out due to inactivity. If you do not have JavaScript running you will recieve a message to advise you of the length of time before the time-out. If you have JavaScript enabled, the time-out is lengthy and should not cause difficulty, however you should note the following tips to avoid losing your comments or corrupting your entries:

  1. DO NOT jump between web pages/applications while logging comments.

  2. DO NOT log comments for more than one document at a time. Complete and submit all comments for one document before commenting on another.

  3. DO NOT leave your submission half way through. If you need to take a break, submit your current set of comments. The system will email you a copy of your comments so you can identify where you were up to and add to them later.

  4. DO NOT exit from the interface until you have completed all three stages of the submission process.

  1. the student must obtain written approval to undertake a non-standard enrolment
  2. the student is responsible for ensuring course entry requirements are met.

(5) A student approved for cross-institutional study at another Australian tertiary institution must maintain continuity of enrolment at RMIT University.

(6) If a student is undertaking all courses at the host institute for a given semester, they must apply for a leave of absence for the RMIT award program by the enrolment deadline.

(8) Onshore international students on a student visa are:

  1. not eligible to study Open Universities Australia (OUA) courses as they are not CRICOS registered
  2. responsible for maintaining and meeting their visa requirements in any given semester.

(9) A student enrolled in a degree program at another Australian university or recognised higher education provider may apply to study single courses at RMIT on a cross-institutional inbound basis.

Exchange and Study Abroad
