Admission as an International Student

Academic Requirements

International students intending to enrol at the University of Notre Dame Australia need to satisfy minimum academic entry requirements.

 

How to Apply

Applicants who are currently in Australia
Prospective students who are currently studying at another Australian educational institution and are planning on continuing study at Notre Dame should apply directly through the Notre Dame International Office as per the procedure for all international students. Issuing of Confirmation of Enrolments (CoE's) and other visa and health requirements is administered by the Notre Dame International Office.

Enquiries regarding admission should be directed to the Notre Dame International Office .

Special consideration
Applicants may be considered for special consideration or recognition of prior learning which may allow them admission to the course of choice even though the academic entry requirements have been met. This normally occurs in cases where an applicant has other forms of post-secondary achievement and study (for example, professional qualifications). Please submit details of this with your application.

 

General Information

Student Visas

A student visa is required for study in Australia. The Notre Dame International Office or a designated Notre Dame representative will issue a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) when you have:

  • accepted a formal offer of a place at the University of Notre Dame Australia
  • satisfied any conditions of that offer
  • paid the fees outlined in the invoice sent with the Letter of Offer

The visa application process can be lengthy and applications should be submitted as early as possible. Further information on visa application procedures can be obtained from the nearest Australian diplomatic post or from the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC). We encourage applicants to apply well in advance of the intended start date, and certainly not less than eight weeks prior to the start of the study semester.
