Subject choices and outlines 

There are summaries and outlines of the available subjects for each program in the Academic and English Student Handbook.  

Minimum and maximum study load  

Your ‘study load’ is the number of subjects you’re studying at a particular stage of your program. You’ll find the full-time study load for each program in the Academic and English Student Handbook.  
Please note that, if you need to repeat a subject from Stage 1 of your program, you may not be able to take all subjects in Stage 2, because this may exceed the full-time study load. If this happens, contact your Student Success Adviser.  

If you’re an international student, your student visa requires that you undertake a full-time study load, as set out by the Department of Home Affairs. This also applies to UTS Foundation Studies students.  
 

If you’re a domestic diploma student, you can enrol part-time as long as you can complete your program in the timeframe outlined in the Academic Course Progression and Completion Policy.  

Generally, you may not enrol in more than the standard number of subjects at any stage of your program. There’s more about this in the Academic and English Student Handbook​. As an exception and subject to approval by your Student Success Adviser, you may exceed the number of subjects if you’re in the last stage of study and only have one additional subject to complete your program. Apply by contacting the Student Success Adviser by Wednesday before Week 1.  

Prerequisites  

You are not allowed to enrol in a subject without first successfully completing the prerequisite(s). In some circumstances, you may be allowed to enrol with the permission of the Program Manager.  

Course progress

If you’re an academic student, you’ll need to achieve the following to demonstrate you’re progressing in your program: 

  • Pass at least 50 per cent of subjects attempted in any study period. 
  • Not fail any subject more than once. 
  • No more than five fail results on your entire record. 

     

If you’re an international student, the Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) framework and Department of Home Affairs student visa conditions require that you maintain satisfactory academic progress throughout your program. 

UTS College will report you to the Department of Home Affairs for unsatisfactory program progress via PRISMS as per the conditions outlined in the Academic Program Progress Policy. An outcome of reporting you for unsatisfactory program progress via PRISMS is that your student visa may be cancelled. 

There’s more about this in the Academic Course Progress and Completion Policy (Offshore) 

  Completion within Expected Duration of Study procedure

If you’re an international student on a student visa, you must complete your program within the time limits specified in your Electronic Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE). UTS College will monitor your workload to make sure you complete on time. In certain limited circumstances, UTS College may allow you to extend the expected duration by issuing a new CoE.
