Applicants may be approved to study a maximum of two units on a fee-paying non-award basis in any study period, subject to places being available. Applicants must meet unit requirements and will be formally assessed in the units in which they enrol. If the student subsequently applies for and is granted admission to a course at the University, units undertaken on a non-award basis and successfully completed may be credited to that course, subject to the Academic Regulations and the relevant course rules. Units including a Practical Component: except with the approval of the Dean, an applicant may not be offered a place on a non-award, cross-institutional or auditing basis in any professional experience unit or unit that includes a practical placement.
