Non-award study
Non-award study refers to enrolment in subjects which do not count towards a formal award course at UTS. Non-award study may be undertaken out of personal interest, or to upgrade skills or knowledge in a specific area.
Non-award students are not eligible to access any of the government loan schemes.
Cross-institutional study
Cross-institutional study refers to enrolment in subjects for credit towards an award course at another Australian University in which the student is enrolled.
Cross-institutional students may be eligible for HECS-HELP or FEE-HELP depending on whether they have a CSP or DFEE place and providing they meet the citizenship and residency requirements. Applicants to UTS will be required to submit (with their application):
- home institution's written confirmation that the subject(s) applied for will be credited towards their degree
- evidence of their current fee status at their home institution (CSP or Domestic Fee Paying)
How to apply
Applicants must complete a non-award (PDF) or cross-institutional (PDF)application form. Application forms are available online and from UTS Student Centres.
