When do course outlines become available and when does course content get released?

You should receive this information in week one of term through Moodle.

What should I do if a class I want to enrol in is already full?

You may find a class is full or on a waitlist for a course that has already met its enrolment capacity, if this has happened to you please reach out to us and we will do what we can to see if we can find space in the course for you or provide an alternative solution. Please reach out to the Nucleus Student Hub to discuss your options.

Who do I speak to about transferring course credits from another degree?

Credit will be assessed by student services and it is important that students submit their application for credit as early as possible (via https://student.unsw.edu.au/credit-transfer). Students can refer to the MyLaw student intranet (https://my.law.unsw.edu.au/current-students/my-academic-life/policies-procedures-and-student-forms) to see what they might be eligible for prior to submitting their application, or they can contact student services: https://student.unsw.edu.au/law

When should students select their courses for every term? Are there any notifications about when to select courses? If some core courses are at capacity and those courses are prerequisites to later courses, what is the advice for students?

Regarding enrolment/course selection, UNSW moved to annual enrolment when 3+ was introduced in 2019 and this allows students to enrol for an entire year in the courses they intend to complete each term. Annual enrolment usually opens around October. In addition to annual enrolment, students must class register for their classes each term, this is when you pick the class times you wish to attend. Class registration opens 2-3 months before the start of each term.

It is recommended that students enrol and class register as early as possible to avoid disappointment. In the event that students miss out on enrolling in a particular course, they can submit a full class request to student services who will endeavour to assist (via https://portal.insight.unsw.edu.au/web-forms/). The University sends out numerous communications about the various enrolment and class registration deadlines however, students should also familiarise themselves with the UNSW academic calendar https://student.unsw.edu.au/enrolment-dates

I am interested in exchange. Can I have some more details about this?

As a UNSW Law & Justice student, you can study overseas on an international exchange at leading universities around the world. UNSW students do not pay any additional tuition fees to the overseas host institution and your courses will be credited to your degree.

Completing part of your law program at an overseas institution is both a culturally rewarding and intellectually enriching experience. Students are eligible to go on exchange in their fourth or fifth year of an undergraduate degree; during the second or third year of a Juris Doctor (JD) program; or after you have completed 24 UOC in the Master of Laws. 

Start planning your overseas experience for when borders open again!  https://student.unsw.edu.au/exchange. We partner with a number of universities across the UK (and across the world!), search for the current list of partner unis here: https://student.unsw.edu.au/partners
