FAQs

If classes are closed in eStudent you will receive the following message if attempting to register:

Screenshot showing registration closed message.

Classes may be closed because:

  • The opening date for class registration has not yet occurred. Click HERE to see the opening dates for class registration.
  • The closing date for class registration has occurred. This will generally be the end of the second week of your study period. Click HERE to see the opening dates for class registration. Contact the Student Centre for any registration changes.
  • Your classes do not allow self-registration.  For students studying Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Science or Pharmacy, your class registrations for core subjects will be managed by your College. All you need to do is enrol in your subjects in eStudent. However, you will still need to register in classes for elective subjects separately. You should contact your college if you need to make any changes to your class registration for core subjects.

In some cases you will see a class with more than one 'From' date. This means the class is not run each week and breaks exist in the timetable.

In the Week Starting field enter the first From Date of the class and click Refresh.

If a class is full and there is no wait list available, the class will display an Unavailable? Link.

In this instance, you should:

  1. Select an alternate class that is not full for the particular activity; OR
  2. Change your subject enrolment (if this class is for an elective subject) if you are unable to make it to an alternate class; OR
  3. Contact the Student Centre for further assistance if you are unable to change your enrolment at all.

If classes are full, you may be able to place yourself on a wait list. A small grey clock icon will display on the class if a wait list is available (refer to the screenshot below).

Streamed classes are two or more classes connected together.  Selecting a stream will register you into all classes associated with that stream.

If your subject has class streams, the class will have a 'chain link' icon in the top right corner of the class on the timetable grid.
