Census dates

Census date is the official deadline for finalising your enrolment and fees for a session.

By this date you need to be sure you want to continue studying your enrolled units. After this date you have committed to your enrolled units which means you will be charged tuition fees and receive a grade for them. If you drop any units after this date you will still need to pay tuition fees and will receive an absent fail grade.

You also need to have either provided your Tax File Number (TFN) by this date (if you are eligible to defer your tuition fees) or have paid your fees in full. Payments will not be accepted after this date. If you do not provide your TFN or pay your fees by the census date your enrolment will be cancelled.

To make sure you are ready for census date each session, complete all items on the checklist below.

• Check your enrolment and decide on the final units you want to study for the session
• Make sure your mobile number is correct in MySR so we can contact you in urgent situations
• Make sure you have provided your TFN (if eligible) or have paid your fees
  

• Continuing students only - Move any emails and contacts you want to keep from your old student email (@mail) account to your MyMail account. Access to your old student email will cease from the Autumn Session 2012 census date
• Continuing students only - If you are considering taking a leave of absence for the session, submit your ‘Discontinuation or break from studies’ form to Student Central before this date* 
• Students changing citizenship status only - Go to Student Central with either your citizenship certificate (if you are permanent resident becoming an Australian citizen) or your passport and visa (if you are an international student becoming a permanent resident)*. You will also need to complete a new electronic Commonwealth Assistance Form (eCAF) before the census date.
  

* If the census date for a session falls on a weekend, you will need to provide this documentation to Student Central before 5pm on the Friday before the census date.
