Melbourne Graduate School of Management New Students

Applying for Advanced Standing

If you think you have previously completed a similar subject to one you will be required to complete in your new program at the Melbourne Graduate School of Management, you may apply for a credit (for previously completed graduate level subjects) or exemption (for previously completed undergraduate level subjects) for the subject. Please refer to the Melbourne Graduate School of Management''s Advanced Standing Policy in the Current Student website for further information on how to apply.

 

 

Important points to consider when submitting your subject selection:


All subject change requests submitted via the Student Information System automatically generate an e-mail to advise you of an 'error' - the 'error' is that 'you have not automatically been enrolled in your selected subjects, as all subjects at your year/ course level need to be approved by your Faculty'.

Please disregard this e-mail; if you have received it, it means that your subject change request has been received, and is in the process of being checked by Faculty &/ or academic staff. It does not necessarily mean that there is a mistake with your subject selection. If your subject selection is not approved, you will be contacted with an explanation as to why, and you will be asked to re-submit your subject selection.

Please note that some classes fill quickly, so the later you enrol into a subject, the greater the risk that you may not be able to enrol into it this semester. You can check online to see if your preferred subject is full.

If you wish to enrol into a subject that is already full, please contact your program administrator to be placed on a waiting list.

To enrol in subjects that are not part of your program, written permission must be obtained from the subject cordinator/ lecturer and from your Academic Program Director. Permission details can be collected on the back of the Subject Change Form (PDF 465kb).
