Enrolment Disclaimer

Please note that this Handbook is a comprehensive catalogue of our offerings and includes courses that can be taken to satisfy program requirements irrespective as to their availability for a particular year. Availability of courses is best checked using filters on this site or on the class timetable site.

You are responsible for ensuring that you enrol in courses according to your program requirements and by following the advice of your Program Authority. myUNSW enrolment checks that you have met enrolment requirements such as pre-requisites for individual courses but not that you are enrolling in courses that will count towards your program requirements.

Additional Information

The admission rank will be determined by the marks received in the core UOSS courses. A raw mark out of 100 will be weighted equally between results recorded in passing attempts at REGZ9000 UOSS 1 and REGZ9255 UOSS 2. In order to be awarded the UPP qualification and therefore be eligible to receive an admission rank, a student must also pass the Gateway elective.

A student entering UNSW via the UPP (Humanities) will receive credit for the Gateway course.
