Assessing your application
When your application is received, Monash University will assess your application against university entrance requirements including: minimum age, English and academic entry requirements. Monash University is obliged to check that you are genuinely seeking temporary entry to Australia to study. If the University forms the opinion that you are not a Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) it may refuse to assess your application, withdraw an offer of a place, or cancel your confirmation of enrolment. In some cases applicants will be referred to their closest Monash registered agent to proceed with their university application and to assist with the GTE assessment and visa arrangements.
If your application is successful, we will make you a full offer. We will email this to you and to your agent, if you have one.
If we are not able to make you a full offer immediately, you may receive a conditional offer. A conditional offer means you must submit more information before we can send you a full offer. Usually, the information we need is final results, the results of an English exam, or transcripts. We will explain in the email.
If you are not successful for your first course preference, we will assess you for the next preference on your application form, or for a pathway program through Monash College.
