Internal Course Transfer Procedures

Parent Policy

Internal Course Transfer Policy

Level of Performance Required

1. Each faculty will make available to students a document which outlines the appropriate level of performance for a student to be considered for internal course transfer into each of their courses. This document should distinguish between the requirements for fee-paying places and those for Commonwealth-supported places (CSPs).

2. It is understood that internal course transfer is a part of a competitive selection process so the level of performance required by applicants to be successful may vary from year to year. Therefore the document should indicate that the levels of performance stated are only those needed to apply and that higher performance levels may be required to be successful.

Application

3. A student currently enrolled in a coursework degree at Monash University who wishes to study a different coursework degree within Monash must complete the Internal Course Transfer Application Form and submit it to the faculty managing the course into which he/she wishes to transfer.

 

4. Pending the outcome of the internal course transfer application, the student must re-enrol in their current course.

Notification of transfer

5. The faculty will notify applicants of the outcome of their application including credit transfer (if applicable), how to accept their offer and how to enrol for successful applicants.

 

6. Successful applicants will be notified that, by accepting the offer of a transfer, they are granting permission to the faculty issuing the offer to discontinue them from their previously enrolled course.

Fees

7. If a student transfers from one campus to another but remains in the same course (no change of course code), his/her fees will be charged in Australian Dollars (AUD) at the continuing rate relevant to the year of their commencement inclusive of the yearly variable fee adjustments.

 

8. If a student transfers from a Monash offshore campus to an Australian campus but remains in the same course (no change of course code) his/her fees will be charged in Australian Dollars (AUD) at the continuing rate (of the Australian based course) relevant to the year of their commencement in that course (at the offshore location) inclusive of the yearly variable fee adjustments (relevant to the Australian based course).

 

9. If a student transfers between courses (change of course code) with or without transferring campuses, he/she is considered a new commencing student in the new course. His/her fees will be charged in Australian Dollars (AUD) at the commencing rate set by the managing faculty relevant to the time he/she commences the new course.

 

10. Eligible CSP students must complete a new HECS-HELP form if they wish to access HECS-HELP. Eligible full-fee students must complete a new FEE-HELP form if they wish to access FEE-HELP.
