Except with approval by the delegated authority in exceptional circumstances, a student 4.is subject to the course time limits set out in Rules 4.38 – 4.39 (below) inclusive.

During prescribed periods in each year, a student will enrol in a program in accordance 5.with requirements of these Rules and pay any required charges.

Concurrent Enrolment

Except with approval by the delegated authority, a student will not be enrolled 6.concurrently in more than one course of study. Where a domestic fee-paying student is approved to enrol in more than one course concurrently, the student must maintain an equivalent full-time enrolment in one of the courses of study in every session in which the student is active in order to maintain eligibility for Commonwealth income support for which they are otherwise eligible.

Twinning, Joint and Dual Award Arrangements and Cross-Institutional Studies

Students enrolled under a Twinning, Joint or Dual award agreement between the 7.University of Wollongong and another institution , or in any form of cross-institutional study, must follow the rules and policies with regard to their enrolment in that subject at the University of Wollongong or the other institution of study at which they are enrolled.

International Student Enrolment Requirements

International students on student visas are required to complete their course within the 8.duration as registered for that course on the Commonwealth Register of Institutions and Courses for International Students (CRICOS). The registered duratio n is determined on the basis of a minimum time to complete the course under a standard full-time study load.

International students can only exceed this duration as a result of:a.

compassionate or compelling circumstances as evidenced by the i.student and approved by the delegated authority; or

participation in an approved intervention strategy as outlined in the ii.Course Progress Policy; or

an approved deferment, leave of absence or suspension of study.iii.

The duration of course completion for individual international students b.may be shortened as a result of credit transfer granted for prior study.

It is the obligation of the International Student to ensure that they are enrolled in the 9.equivalent of a full-time study load at all times, and where they become aware t hat they are under-enrolled, to seek academic advice.

Where the University becomes aware that an International Student on a student visa has 10.failed to enrol in a full time study load without academic approval to do so, either as a result of enrolling in fe wer subjects than constitute a full time load, or as a result of withdrawing from a subject or subjects, the following will apply:

The international student will be required to contact the Head of Students c.for the course-owning Faculty, and show cause as to why they have not enrolled in a full time load.



Where the student can demonstrate the existence of appropriate reasons for d.their under-enrolment, the University may assist the student in processing an extension to their ECOE, and supporting applications for an extended visa.

In the absence of a valid reason for the under-enrolment, as outlined in Rule e.5.8.a (above) the student will either:

Be required to demonstrate how they intend to undertake additional i.study in order to complete their course of study within the expected duration; or

Should the student not have enough time left on their student visa to ii.undertake additional study, the student may be informed that they are unable to complete their course.

Cancellation of Enrolment

A student may have their enrolment cancelled as a consequence of failing to comply 11.with University rules.

Where a student is admitted to a course of study on the basis of documentation or 12.information that is later discovered to be incomplete, inaccurate, fraudulent or misleading, the University may cancel the student’s enrolment.

Where a student fails to meet the minimum rate of progress in a course they may be 13.suspended or excluded from the University, as specified in the Course Progress Policy.

Students may be excluded from the University for either academic or non-academic 14.misconduct as specified in the Student Conduct Rules.

Performance in a mandatory placement program component

The student may be excluded from the course: 15.

where the student fails to perform satisfactorily in a mandatory placement f.program or mandatory professional experience component of the course or for other specified reasons is deemed to be unlikely to perform satisfactorily in that practical placement or professional experience component and therefore has been assessed as unsuitable to continue in such placement by the Academic Program Director, or

where the student is required to complete a mandatory professional program g.or mandatory professional experience with an external agency, and the external agency has refused to permit that student access to their facilities for legitimate reasons.

Where the Academic Program Director has reason to believe it is necessary to assess a 16.student's suitability to continue to participate in a mandatory placement program or mandatory professional experience component, the Academic Program Director should refer to the Faculty Executive Dean for a decision on the matter. The Executive Dean will advise the student in writing of the decision within three business days of making it.

Students wishing to appeal the decision of the Faculty Executive Dean should appeal 17.using the process outlined in the Course Progress Policy.



If the student’s appeal is unsuccessful, the student will be excluded from the course.18.

Period of Cancellation of Enrolment

The period of suspension will comprise one or more sessions and the remainder of the 19.session in which the suspension is applied. At the end of the period of suspension, the student may be re-enrolled in the course.

The period of exclusion will comprise one or more years, and the remainder of the 20.session in which the exclusion is applied. Students who are excluded must re-apply for admission directly to the University at the end of the exclusion period, and are required to declare this period of exclusion at the time of applying.

the subject is available in the nominated session or sessions;ac.

the student is not suspended, excluded or expelled from any tertiary ad.institution;

there has been no determination by the delegated authority that there are ae.inappropriate and insufficient personnel and resources to enable the student to undertake the subject; and

enrolment is not restricted to students in a specific course, location af.(campus) or mode of delivery. This may be waived by the delegated authority.

Except with the approval by the delegated authority, a student will not be permitted to 45.enrol in a program which exceeds more than one third above the standard full-time load for that session. This means no more than:

32 credit points for a standard session;ag.

64 credit points for an annual load; orah.

the maximum load specified by the delegated authority for all other ai.sessions.

For the purposes of Rule 4.45 (above), where a student is enrolled in multiple 46.overlapping sessions, the load will be distributed on a pro-rata basis.

A student enrolled in a subject in contravention of t he conditions for enrolment 47.specified in the Course Handbook or subject requirements will be withdrawn from that subject unless permitted by the delegated authority to remain enrolled.



A student who, in a particular year, is not permitted to enrol in a sub ject pursuant to 48.these Rules may apply for permission to enrol in the subject in a subsequent year.

A student who is refused continuation of registration, through suspension or exclusion 49.may not enrol in any subject.

Withdrawal from Subjects

Subject to Rule 4.53 (below), a student may withdraw from a subject provided such 50.withdrawal is made no later than the deadlines for withdrawal as specified below. A student who withdraws from all subjects in a session without obtaining an approved leave of absence, as per Rules 4.31 – 4.37 (above) inclusive, may have their enrolment lapsed. Once enrolment has lapsed, the student must re-apply for admission.

A student may not withdraw from a subject with or without penalty if it is a subject in 51.respect of which they are being investigated for academic misconduct unless the investigation (and any subsequent appeal process) has been finalised and there is no finding of academic misconduct made against the student. Any purported variation to the student’s enrolment in these circumstances will be of no effect.

Subject to Rule 4.51 (above), a student enrolled in a coursework subject may withdraw 52.from a subject without academic penalty and without the subject appearing on the official academic transcript if they withdraw:

before the end of the ninth week of session for subjects in a standard session aj.or

before the last day to withdraw without academic penalty, as specified in the ak.List of Key Dates (Non Standard Sessions) for subjects in a non-standard session.

Where a student seeks to withdraw from a subject between the last date to withdraw 53.without academic penalty as outlined in Rule 4.52 (above) and ten working days after the declaration of the individual student’s final grade for the subject or subjects, the following rules will apply:

An application to withdraw from a subject or subjects must be made on the al.appropriate form for consideration by the delegated authority;

The student must demonstrate the existence of compassionate or compelling am.circumstances that impacted the student’s ability to undertake their studies for a significant proportion of the session in question;

The student must demonstrate the existence of reasons why the student did an.not seek to withdraw from a subject or subjects until after their results have been declared;

Where withdrawal is not being sought for all of the subjects in which the ao.student was enrolled for the period in question, the student must be able to demonstrate the reasons why the circumstances did not impact on all of the subjects in which they were enrolled; and

The delegated authority must deem that the circumstances had enough of an ap.impact on the student’s ability to study for a significant enough period of the session in question to warrant withdrawing the student from the subject or subjects;





After the deadline outlined in Rule 4.53 (above), a student may only be withdrawn 54.from a subject if they fulfil the requirements of Schedule 3 Clause 5 of the Delegations of Authority Policy.

If an application for withdrawal from a subject without academic penalty is approved, 55.the student will be deemed to have withdrawn from the subject without academic penalty for the purposes of Course Progress Policy and the subject will be recorded as “Approved withdrawal” on the enrolment record and the subject will not appear on the academic transcript.

If an application for withdrawal from a subject without academic penalty is not 56.approved, the enrolment will stand and a grade will be declared for that subject. The student may appeal the grade received in accordance with the Coursework Student Academic Complaints Policy.

Where:57.

a student can demonstrate the existence of an enrolment error; ora.

the delegated authority so authorises on the basis that the delegated authority b.determines that there are exceptional circumstances,

the student or a cohort of students may be withdrawn from a subject without application and without academic penalty for the purposes of the Course Progress Policy. The subject will be recorded as either “Approved withdrawal” or “Withdrawn late with approval” on the enrolment record and the subject will not appear on the academic transcript.

Amendment of Academic Record

There are four circumstances under which a student may apply to a delegated authority 58.to have their Academic Record amended once results for a subject have been released, as follows:

there has been an enrolment error (as determined under Rule 5.60 below)aq.

a student has successfully applied under the Coursework Student ar.Academic Complaints Policy to have a mark or grade altered; or

a student has either applied for academic consideration under the Student as.Academic Consideration Policy.

a student has been granted a withdrawal under Rules 4.50 – 4.57 (above).at.

No amendment can be made to an academic record after the student’s course has been 59.conferred.

A student may apply to have their academic record amended where the student has 60.either:

not attempted a subject for which they were formally enrolled as a result of au.an enrolment error; or

attempted a subject for which they were not formally enrolled as a result of av.an enrolment error and need to be enrolled to have a grade declared.

Applications under Rule 4.60 (above) must be made on the appropriate form, which 61.must:



include appropriate details to support the application, andaw.

be lodged on the appropriate form no later than ten days after the ax.declaration of the individual student’s results for a subject

Under the Higher Education Support Act, domestic students are not eligible for 62.Commonwealth support or assistance for subjects enrolled after the census date if the reason for late enrolment is student error. In these cases Commonwealth supported students will only be able to enrol in subjects on a full fee paying basis. For course s where there are no full fee paying places offered, students will be required to enrol on a non-award basis and pay the non-award fees upfront. Non-Commonwealth supported (full fee paying) students will be required to pay the relevant tuition fees upfront.

Conclusion of Enrolment

Conferral of Awards

All awards of the University are conferred in accordance with the University ’s 63.Conferrals and Issuance Policy.

A course award may be conferred upon a student who has complied with relevant parts 64.of these Rules, is not indebted to the University, and has met the requirements for the course as specified in the Course Handbook , or as varied by the delegated authority under Rule 4.43.a (above). A student enrolled in a double degree course does not meet the requirements for the course unless the requirements for both strands of the double degree course (as varied) are met.

Applications to have an award conferred must be made on the appropriate form and by 65.the due date for each session. It is the responsibility of the student to lodge an application to graduate in order to have their award formally conferred. Failure to do so will result in the student being unable to receive their official documentation or attend a graduation ceremony.

In the event of the death or permanent incapacity of a student:66.

if the student has completed the requirements of their course as specified in b.Rule 4.64 (above), but has not yet had the award conferred, the Council may confer the award on the student;

if the student has not completed the course requirements, but has completed a c.substantial proportion of the course requirements, Council may confer a posthumous award at its discretion; or

if the student has not completed the course requirements, but has completed d.all or a substantial part of the requirements of an award at a lower level, the student can be deemed to have completed the requirements of the lower level award and Council may confer that award at its discretion.

Recommendations to Council under Rule 4.66 (above) would normally be made within 67.two years of the student’s last enrolment and must be supported by relevant documentation.

Compulsory Non-Credit Modules5



In addition to requirements set out in the Course Rules, students must satisfy the 1.relevant requirements listed below:

StartSmart Requirements for StartSmart are detailed on the University of Wollongong Library 2.website.

Undergraduate and Postgraduate Coursework students must complete StartSmart in 3.their first session of study.

Students who fail to complete StartSmart will have their results withheld. 4.

CareerSmart

Requirements for CareerSmart are detailed on the University of Wollongong Careers 5.Central website.

Undergraduate students must complete CareerSmart in their first session of study. 6.

Students who fail to complete CareerSmart will have their results withheld.7.

Zero Credit Point Professional Experience Subjects

In course of study where a zero credit point professional experience subject is a 8.course requirement, students must complete the subject before their course can be conferred.

Where a student remains enrolled in the subject over multiple sessions, the student’s 9.record for the subject will have a grade of IPC recorded until the subject is completed.

Assessment and Grades of Performance6

Assessment Responsibilities of Students

Assessment task requirements

All students are required to complete assessment tasks in line with the requirements 1.of the Teaching and Assessment: Assessment and Feedback Policy and the Examination Rules.

Coursework and Honours students must meet any mandatory minimum attendance 2.requirements, as set out in the relevant Subject Outline and/or Honours Guide. Failure by a student to comply with mandatory minimum attendance requirements may constitute grounds for the award of a grade of Technical Fail (TF) in that subject.

Determination, Declaration and Release of Subject Results

Determination and declaration of results

A mark and an approved grade of performance will be determined and declared 3.for each subject in which a student is enrolled in accordan ce with the Standards for the Finalisation of Student Results and the Teaching and Assessment: Assessment



and Feedback Policy. The responsibilities of the Faculty Assessment Committee and the Academic Unit Assessment Committee in these processes are set out in the Standards for the Finalisation of Student Results.

Release of resultsAfter results are declared in each subject, the results will be released by the 4.Director, Student Services Division in a form and at a time determined by the Director, Student Services Division. Students access their results via their enrolment record on Student OnLine Services (SOLS) on and from the day of release of results. No information concerning results will be given by telephone.

Grades of performance for all subjects

The approved grades of performance and associated ranges of marks for 100, 200, 5.300, 400, 800 and 900 level subjects are as follows:

Satisfactory completion

High Distinction 85% to100%

Distinction 75% to 84%

Credit 65% to 74%

Pass 50% to 64%

Pass Supplementary 50%

Determination of performance as Satisfactory or Unsatisfactory

For approved undergraduate and postgraduate coursework subjects, performance 6.will be determined as:

Satisfactory Completion Satisfactory

Unsatisfactory Completion Unsatisfactory

The delegated authority may, in exceptional circumstances as determined by the delegated authority, authorise the substitution of the grades of performance specified in Rule 6.5 (above) with those specified in Rule 6.6 (above), with respect to a subject, a student or cohort of students, and subject to any condition or conditions specified in the authorisation.



Graduate Medicine

In addition to the determination of performance in Rule 6.5 (above), subjects from 7.Graduate Medicine that are completed with a high standard of performance may be awarded the grade of Excellent instead of Satisfactory.

Interim grades

Students must not have a blank declaration of results. An interim grade must be 8.given when a grade of performance for a subject has not been declared at the release of results. Interim grades may be given as follows:

WH (withheld):a.

for investigative grounds; any formal investigation carried out by a i.person or committee authorised to conduct the investigation under University Rules or policy; or

due to unavoidable delays in marking an assessment task and/or ii.finalising a grade.

WS (withheld supplementary): due to a supplementary assessment or b.supplementary examination being offered.

WD (withheld deferred): due to a deferred assessment or deferred c.examination being provided in response to a successful academic consideration application.

IPC (in progress coursework): where a subject spans session dates (for d.example any subject lasting two sessions or longer) , or under the conditions outlined in Rule 6.10 (below).

ND (not declared): generated by the student system when a grade of e.performance or other interim grade has not been declared at the release of results.

With the exception of IPC grades, where an interim grade (outlined above) is given, a grade of performance for the subject must be declared within ten weeks after the release of results date. Failure to declare an interim grade within ten weeks after the release of results will result in a mark of zero and grade of Fail, or an Unsatisfactory grade for subjects with a Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory grading scheme, being applied. Failure to declare an IPC grade within one year of the release of results will result in a mark of zero and grade of Fail, or an Unsatisfactory grade for subjects with a Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory grading scheme, being applied.

Where a WH or ND grade is given, it is the student ’s responsibility to take the 9.appropriate action relative to the interim grade given.

Where a subject does not span session dates but requires the use of the IPC grade, an 10.IPC grade may be given under the following conditions:

the subject is a professional placement or professional experience subject with a.a requirement that a minimum number of placement hours be undertaken during the session, as specified in the subject outline;

for students who have, for whatever reason, been unable to complete all of b.the placement hours during the required session, the period du ring which a



student can complete the placement exceeds the ten week period following the release of results as outlined in Rule 6.8 (above); and

the use of the IPC grade for the subject due to professional placement or c.professional experience is approved by the delegated authority.

Declaration of results for multi session subjects

Where a subject is required to be undertaken over more than one session, a grade 11.will be declared at the end of each session prior to the final session as IPC (in progress coursework).

When the subject has been completed a grade of performance, as per Rules 6.5 – 12.6.7 (above) inclusive, will be declared for the final session of enrolment. All previous session enrolments may be declared as CO (Complete) for the purpose of counting the total credit points for the subject.

If a student is deemed to be making unsatisfactory progress during a multi session 13.subject and is not permitted to continue their enrolment in the subject, a grade of U (Unsatisfactory) will be applied to the current session of enrolment.

If a student withdraws from a multi session subject a grade of U (Unsatisfactory) 14.may be declared if appropriate to indicate that the student has ceased the subject before completion.

Supplementary Assessment

A student who is awarded a mark of 49 or less, or is awarded a grade of TF in an 15.undergraduate or postgraduate coursework subject, may be offered a supplementary assessment in accordance with the requirements of the Supplementary Assessment Procedure.

The following provisions apply to the mark and/or grade a student receives as a 16.result of undertaking a supplementary assessment:

where a student achieves a composite mark of 50 or more for the f.subject, the student will receive a mark of 50 for the subject and a grade of Pass-Supplementary (PS);

where a student achieves a composite mark of less than 50 for the subject, g.the student will receive their original mark and a grade of Fail; and

Where a student gains a composite mark of 50 or more for the subject but h.does not meet a specified level in the supplementary assessment task required to pass the subject, the student will receive a Technical Fail and the provisions of Rule 6.17 (below) will apply

Failure to attain minimum performance levels

Where a student gains a mark of 50 or greater and does not meet a specified level 17.in one or more assessment tasks required to pass the subject, a Technical Fail grade will be used. Where a Technical Fail is given the following applies:

the student has failed the subject;i.

TF (Technical Fail) without a mark will be granted; j.



a TF will be presented on the student’s academic transcript; andk.

the allocated mark of 49 will be used as the weighted average mark l.calculation for subjects at all levels.

Where a subject has a minimum performance level required for either the subject, 18.and/or for specific assessment tasks or attendance that are part of the subject, this must be included in the Subject Outline with the statement that students who do not meet the minimum performance requirements as set out in the Subject Outline will be given a TF grade on their academic transcript.

Course-Level Grades of Performance

Average Marks

A student’s Average Mark will be determined at a course level using the 19.calculation as follows:

where:

m is the mark obtained in each attempt at each subject;

c is the credit point value of the subject;

A student’s Weighted Average Mark will be determined using the calculation as 20.follows:

where:

m is the actual mark obtained in each attempt at each subject;

c is the credit point value of the subject;

l is the weight reflecting the level of the subject.

1 for 000 level *1 for 100 level*2 for 200 level*3 for 300 level*4 for 400 level*4 for Honours level*9 for 800 level*9 for 900 level*

Summation in the numerator and denominator includes:21.

all subjects attempted while registered for the course they are completing e.

credit for subjects completed at UOW (previously known as advanced f.standing).



Subjects which are graded Satisfactory (S), Unsatisfactory (U) or Excellent (E) are 22.not to be included in the calculations.
