Understanding Enrollments

Are you a first-year student who has been traumatised by eStudent’s study planner? Or are you a third year who just continually fails at a smooth enrolment? Below is a simple guide on how to achieve a stress-free start to semester.

To begin, go to estudent.utas.edu.au and log in. You can enrol in undergrad and postgrad courses online through eStudent. eStudent is not only where you enrol, but where you manage your payments/fees and personal details.

Once you’ve logged in, head straight to the ‘Study’ tab, then ‘Manage Study Plan’. Certain degrees will have a personalised study plan with a selection of preplanned units. Otherwise you’ll have to manually select which units to study.

Next you can finally begin choosing and enrolling in your units. Note that you must accept the terms and conditions and complete any additional forms to activate your study plan.

Your study plan will identify your units as the following:

Planned: The unit is required in your degree, but you have not yet enrolled.

Enrolled: You are currently enrolled in this unit.

Passed: You have successfully passed the unit.

Some units are only offered during certain semesters and others may only be available by distance and/or on-campus. You can check and select these at utas.edu.au/courses or on your study plan. When you’ve decided which units you want to take, click ‘Add to Study Planner’ and then ‘Save Changes on Study Planner’ before returning back to the study plan to officially enrol.

You will have to choose the correct availability from the drop-down menu before ticking the enrol box on the right for all of your desired units,. Then scroll to the bottom and click ‘Confirm Enrolment’. It will ask you to confirm once more before submitting, and then you’re done!

Ensure you fulfil the correct amount of credit points for your semester because this may differ based on your degree structure. The most common structure is full time — four units worth 12.50 credit points per semester.
