Enrolling in the Bachelor of Nursing

We know that enrolling in your Bachelor of Nursing can be confusing. You can use the information on this page to help you with enrolling into your courses for the whole year.

When enrolling, we recommend that you:

• Enrol in your courses for both Semester One and Two. This is to avoid missing out on a place in your courses
• Enrol in Semester One first, then enrol into Semester Two
• Enrol as soon as you accept your offer of place. This is to avoid missing out choosing a course time that best works for you

Please note, you must complete all the core Stage One Nursing courses before progressing to Stage Two Nursing.

You can use this information if you’re enrolling into a Bachelor of Nursing as a single degree. This means that you’re only studying a Bachelor of Nursing.

If you’re enrolling into your Bachelor of Nursing for the first time, you will enrol into your courses using Timetable Planner. You should follow the below steps for both Semester One and Semester Two. 

You will use the ‘Search by cohort’ process to select your courses.

A cohort means that your courses are pre-selected by your faculty to make sure you have a clash-free timetable.

Step-by-step enrolment steps

3. Choose 'Timetable Planner' and select the semester you want before clicking the green 'Timetable Planner' button
4. Click the 'Add Course' button and select the 'Search by Cohort' tab

   • Under 'Cohort' choose a Cohort option. Look for 'BNURS Option XX'. You will be able to preview the timetable for your chosen cohort option

Please note:

• If you’re transferring from another university and have been approved for a credit transfer of your previously courses, you will need to enrol in your courses individually using the ‘By subject’ tab
• If you’re enrolling in your Nursing courses through ‘By subject,’ please make sure you select the Nursing-specific streams. A stream means that the classes have been specifically set aside for students studying a Bachelor of Nursing. For more information, please see How to enrol in a course

Please note that the University may not be able to accommodate your personal commitments in the available cohort options. This is because we work to ensure that you have access to clash-free timetables.
