Hi Zues,

Thanks for your interest in the Extension Program!

Applications for 2015 have officially closed but if you email our Extension Program office on [email protected] they might accept a late application if you have special circumstances. They can explain what they need if you email them.

If you are interested in the Extension Program 2016 intake, applications will open in August this year. More information is available on our website.

Best of luck!

Yesterday at the ATARnotes lecture they mentioned they opened UMEP rego again. I have no clear circumstance for the late application but I fulfill requirements

I was trying to enrol last night when I got to the part where I had to put an emergency contact in. As I clicked "add emergency contact" it led me to a blank page. I tried it a few times and same thing. So I saved my progress and tried again today. Went to the link I was given via email and it says page not available??? So I logged into the student portal but don't know how to continue my enrolment from there. Help please?
My username is jle3 if that helps. Thanks!

Also, with accepting scholarships, all I need to do is choose 'accept' and update my bank account details right?

Hey Jawnle,
Does this work for you? It does for me. You'll want to go to step 2.
If not, can I get you to try clearing your browser cache and cookies?

Is there a guide to 'enrolling into subjects'?

[Stevensmay]

Is there a guide to 'enrolling into subjects'?

Showing you how to actually in enrol in a subject? Or am I misunderstanding.

If so, there is this.

[BLACKCATT]

has anyone got their email(with student id) yet? 

[Stevensmay]

has anyone got their email(with student id) yet? 

I'd say yes, given that there are people on here enrolling. Have you completed step one of the enrollment process, account activation? Account activation.

Just realised you wrote Student ID and not username.

[kx4y]

Yeah, I got my student ID in an email I received yesterday.

So I'm all a bit confused about choosing my subjects. I'm doing BCom and I have to choose between an Actuarial/Business/General stream and I'm not sure which will fit me the best. On top of that I'm not sure how everything works with the study planner, and how/which majors work. Is this something that's cleared up in AAD or ?

IIRC they do go over the study planner on AAD and how to enrol in subjects since it is quite confusing. Now that I think about it I think there was a session after the information lectures in which you go to the computers and people come around and help you enrol.

A major is a specialisation within a degree. The decision you have to make is whether or not you want to major in Actuarial Studies. If not, then you'll be picking the general stream. Try looking at the majors here http://bcom.unimelb.edu.au/ and see if Actuarial Studies interests you.

I'm pretty sure there will be information on majors on AAD, so check out the schedule here https://s3.amazonaws.com/uom-orientation/assets/files/000/000/009/original/FINAL-AAD_1_full_day_program.pdf?1417576156

Hi unimelb,

I was wondering if you could tell me what this question from your enrolment procedure means:

Will you undertake in Australia any units of study contributing to the course of study of which the unit forms a part?

Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure on this one, but I think it's asking if you will be in Australia while undertaking your degree.
Seems to indicate that you are eligible for FEE-HELP or HECS-HELP, so if this is the area the question is in it sounds right.

Hi there:
Just wondering is the enrollment separate from doing our timetables?
Like if I don't enroll my subject ASAP, will I have a chance of more clashes since most people have already enrolled in a lecture?

Stevensmay is right. Pretty sure this just means that will you do any study in Australia, which i guess you will be. Since if you read the note beside the options, you can't get hecs help if you ticked no.

Hey Mikehepro,

Enrolment is separate to class registration (timetabling). You can complete your enrolment now as I'm sure your aware, but class registration opens at 10am on the 2nd of Feb. Seeing as you are in first year, the subjects are often quite large so there will be many lectures and tutorials for you to pick from, hopefully enabling you to avoid any clashes. Further to this only 90% of first year places in lectures and tutorials are released on the 2nd of Feb, the remaining 10% will be released on the 20th of Feb.
