Second semester entry
If you are an Australian student who has deferred a place at UWA and now wish to take up your offer, you need to re-apply online.
To take up your deferred place in:
First semester
If you wish to simply take up your deferred place:
- Apply directly to UWA
- Go to studyat.uwa.edu.au/re-apply and fill out the on-line re-application form
- You do not need to re-submit any documents
If you wish to be considered for other courses before your deferred course:
- Apply through TISC
- Go to www.tisc.edu.au, re-register, and lodge an application on-line
- List any other courses as higher preferences than your deferred course; list your deferred course last
- You may need to supply your documents to TISC again
Second semester
You may apply for courses other than the one you were previously offered. We recommend you make your deferred course your last preference. This way, the higher preferences will be checked and if you are unsuccessful in attaining a place, your deferred course will be re-offered to you.
The University will reoffer you a place provided that you have not enrolled in, or continued an existing enrolment in, any other undergraduate or postgraduate diploma or degree program, at UWA or any other tertiary institution since deferring and you re-apply for your place before the closing date.
If this is not the case, you may still re-apply but you will forfeit your guaranteed offer in the deferred course. You will be considered in ordinary competition, largely on the basis of your tertiary results.
If you are an international student, contact the International Centre.

Started but not completed a degree at UWA
If you have previously begun but not completed a degree at UWA, you will need to submit a new application. First semester applications must be submitted via theTertiary Institutions Service Centre (TISC). For mid-year or second semester, you will need to apply online directly to UWA.
Current students may choose to apply to transfer into another course.
If you are an international student, contact the International Centre.
