Applying and Enroling are two distinct processes. For most courses you don't need to apply, you just need to participate in the pre-enrolment information session and then enrol online or at your local Campus. Simply follow the step by step guide below:
Step 1: Make sure you meet the course entry requirements
Many TAFE NSW courses have specific entry requirements, such as qualifications, skills, knowledge or experience. Specific requirements for each course are listed when you undertake a course search.
Some courses have additional requirements. All courses have a requirement for you to participate in a pre-enrolment information session. You may also need to sit for a test, attend an interview or audition or submit a portfolio. Undertake a course search, visit your local Campus or call Course Information on 131 601.
You should also check what you may be required to bring to the pre-enrolment information session.
Step 2: Apply (if required)
Some TAFE NSW courses require you to apply before you can enrol. This ensures that everyone who wants to do a course is considered in a fair and consistent way for each location.
For these courses you need to complete a TAFE NSW Course Application Form.
Deliver or mail your completed Application to the Campus of your first preference by the Application closing date. Semester 1, 2012 course applications close on Friday 28 October 2011.
If your Application is successful, you will receive details of when and how to enrol.
If the application closing date has already passed, you can still apply and your Application will be stamped as a `late application'. Please note: Applications received by the closing date will be given first preference.
Call Course Information on 131 601 or your local Campus for more details on Application courses and forms.
Step 3: Enrol
You can enrol online or at your local Campus from 10am on Thursday 12 January. At the same time you will need to pay the TAFE NSW fee to finalise your enrolment.
If you are unable to pay the TAFE NSW fee via credit card you will need to contact the Customer Service Centre on 131 601 promptly to secure your place.
If you are applying for a Concession/Exemption you will need to contact the Customer Serivce Centre on 131 601 promptly to reserve your place. You will then need to present to your local Campus to have your application processed.
Prior to enroling online, you are encouraged to participate in a pre-enrolment information session. See course search or call Course Information on 131 601 for more information.
Please note: Your enrolment must be finalised within five (5) business days from time of registration to secure your place otherwise your place will be open to other students.
