Self-enrolment

Use your study plan in MyStudent as a guide when choosing your subjects – it gives you a blueprint of what subjects you need to do in order to complete your degree. Most degrees will have a combination of both core and elective subjects. If your degree allows you to choose an elective subject, you can browse all JCU subjects on Subject Search. Students will receive a personalised email with recommended subject enrolment advice during the self-enrolment period before the start of each trimester.

View your Subject Timetable for the relevant Study Period, checking to see there are no clashes of class times.
