Unit Enrolment Guide (New Students)

Your first enrolment step is to consult the UNE Course Handbook to:

• Select the units you wish to enrol in, and in which teaching period (trimester) you will study each one
• Determine whether your units have prerequisites or co-requisites that need to be met, and that they will contribute to your course
• Identify any clashes between units you plan to study at the same time – eg. Intensive school dates or other timetables – take special note of any mandatory intensive schools scheduled before teaching commences
• Honours, Cross-Institutional or Non-Award students may already have pre-selected units for your course which you will need to either confirm, remove or add to, depending on your individual program of study.

Also, please take the time to read the following information about enrolling.

Important Information about Managing Your Enrolment

Your enrolment and personal details are controlled in the Self-Enrolment function of the Enrolment portal.

Accessing the portal

1. Login to MyUNE; under the MyEnrol tab (or 'Enrol' if you are a new student), enter your enrolment portal.

   
2. Once in the enrolment portal, access Self-Enrolment via the home page link or menu item under Course Details.
   
3. Progress through the enrolment steps in order to ensure you enter all required information, until you reach the final 'Units' step, where you will select and save your units.
4. Your enrolment is not complete until you complete checkout and save your unit selections

TIP: You can use the navigation menu at any time to access other enrolment functions such as personal details, invoices, unit results history, without returning to MyUNE.

Selecting units

Unit enrolment works like a shopping cart - you will need to:

1. search for units,
2. select the desired offering for each unit, then
3. add them to your unit cart;
4. proceed to the checkout step,
5. check your selection, and
6. save your unit selections to finalise your enrolment

Please note: you will not be enrolled until you have completed checkout and seen a confirmation message that your unit enrolment has been saved.

Try enrolling as early as possible and for the entire academic year (all available teaching periods). Enrolling early ensures that you secure your place in the unit. The best part is: you can change your enrolment right up to the beginning of each teaching period so you are not locked in if something changes.

Unit fees are charged at the beginning of the teaching period, so early enrolment won't affect when you pay.

Make sure you check the textbook requirements for your units and place your orders early to ensure delivery prior to the commencement of the teaching period.

If you have chosen an invalid unit by mistake, you can go back and remove it from your cart before completing checkout.

Access the Study Assist website. This site contains a lot of useful information about undertaking higher education studies at an Australian university.

You will need to use the rules for your course as presented in the Course and Unit Catalogue. It may assist to bookmark and/or print out your program of study and course plans to keep track of when you complete such things as core units, prescribed units and elective units. Re-check to make sure that the units you have enrolled in definitely count towards completing your course.

If you believe there is a problem with your enrolment, Course Advising is available from Student Success staff. Contact us via AskUNE or by phoning 02 6773 2000.

Errors You May Encounter as a Result of Not Saving Units in Your Cart

If you encounter an enrolment error in your Units step when attempting to save a unit, which states [unit code] followed by the reasoning (for example, ‘CHEM110 unit attempt does not exist or already exists’ or ‘ANCH313 cannot be withdrawn if it does not have a status of enrolled’), you will need to click on the Clear Unsaved Changes:

This will clear everything in your cart, so you will need to re-add the units to your enrolment. Ensure you click ‘proceed to checkout’ and ‘Save and Continue’ to save your enrolment.

Provide the details as mentioned above and one of our technical officers will investigate.
