Cross Institutional Studies


Closing dates:
Semester One - 4 weeks prior to subject commencement
Semester Two - 4 weeks prior to subject commencement

Business and Language Subjects
The Faculty of Business and Enterprise offers cross-institutional study in Business and Arts related subjects at the undergraduate and postgraduate level. Cross Institutional subjects are taken outside the student's normal course. Students are not enrolled in a Swinburne undergraduate or postgraduate program and receive no award at the completion of study. Students do receive, however, a statement of results for the completed institutional subject or subjects.

Cross-institutional Study
Students currently enrolled at another university may apply to study single subjects on a cross-institutional study basis (TAFE students are not eligible). Applicants must complete the application form that requires approval of the home institution. HECS-Help (where applicable) is processed at Swinburne University of Technology in the normal manner. A HECS-Help Assistance Form (where applicable) must be completed when applying.

Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for first year subjects but prerequisites must be met for second and third year subjects. Applicants must show evidence of meeting pre-requisites on the application form (by providing a certified copy of a Statement of Results).

Subjects Available
Students can select from a wide range of business and language subjects offered by the Faculty of Business and Enterprise. A summary of subjects offered for the forthcoming semester is available by accessing the Faculty timetable. Specific subject details are in the Swinburne University of Technology handbook. The handbook can be viewed at SUT library or purchased from the SUT bookshop.

Application and Availability of Places
Enrolment is determined on a semester to semester basis and no guarantee of subsequent enrolment can be made. Availability of places in classes for cross-institutional study applicants will be determined after degree program students have enrolled. Applications will be processed and advice of enrolment will be sent to successful applicants prior to the start of semester. Applicants who are unsuccessful in gaining a place in a subject will be advised as such by letter.

Fees for Cross-institutional Study
Contact the Faculty for further details on 9214 5554.

Payment
Once an application is processed, an advice of enrolment will be sent to the applicant along with a direct deposit account for payment of the fee by cash/cheque/credit card at a Westpac Bank branch, or Swinburne's Cashier, or online via SwinLink within seven days. Payment of the fee confirms a student’s enrolment in a subject. The student is then entitled to apply for a student card and access student facilities.


Refund Policy
Cross-Institutional Study: Students will only be eligible for a refund of fees if they withdraw from a subject before the census date. Note: If a cross-institutional student is paying single-subject fees, the 'Single Subject Enrolment Refund Policy' will apply.

Swinburne's full policy on Refund of Tuition and General Services Fees can be found at Student Information and Services web page under 'Refunds'.
