The census date marks the deadline for withdrawing from a subject, your course, or requesting a break from your study, without incurring financial liabilities or having the action recorded on your academic transcript and statements.

How census date affects you

International students

For international fee-paying students, census date is the last day you can withdraw from the current study period and receive a refund. Refund amounts are determined by the date of withdrawal and whether you are a new or continuing student.

Withdrawal dates and refunds for new/commencing international students

Withdrawal dates and refunds for established/continuing international students

Domestic students

If you’re a domestic student, census date has numerous implications.

It’s the last day you can withdraw from units, intermit from the current study period, or discontinue your course without HECS-HELP/FEE-HELP liability.
For Commonwealth-supported, HECS-HELP, FEE-HELP or SA-HELP students, it’s the last day you can make full or partial upfront payments for the current study period.
For Commonwealth-supported students, it’s the last day you can submit an online Commonwealth Assistance Form and/or provide your tax file number (TFN).
For Commonwealth-supported, HECS-HELP, FEE-HELP or SA-HELP students, it’s the last day you can submit your Unique Student Identifier (USI).
For domestic fee-paying students, it’s the last day you can apply for FEE-HELP or pay fees up front for the current study period.
It’s also the last day you can withdraw from the current study period without incurring the Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF).
