Other important enrolment steps and information to be aware of regarding enrolment, includes:
Higher Education (HE) students
If you're enrolling in a Higher Education (HE) award course, you can accept your offer and enrol online via MYVU.
Non-award unit of study and complementary enrolment (cross-institutional) students will need to complete a hard-copy enrolment form.
What to prepare
To successfully complete your enrolment online and secure your place in your course, have the following information ready before you log in to MyVU.
Student ID
Your unique Student ID number is included in the offer email sent to your personal email account.
Tax File Number (TFN)
If you are eligible for Higher Education Loan Program (HELP) and decide to defer your fees using the loan, you need to provide a valid TFN.
You can apply online for a TFN through the Australian Tax Office (ATO).
To defer your fees while waiting for your TFN, submit your ATO receipt (Certificate of Application for a TFN) either via MyVU or in person at VUHQ before your first enrolled census date.
Enrol online
When you're ready to enrol, go directly to MyVU, or click the Accept and Enrol Now link in your VU offer email.
MyVU is your gateway to Victoria University information, accessible on your mobile, tablet or desktop computer. Through MyVU, you can manage your enrolment, results, exams, timetables, email, fees and much more.
When enrolling, we recommend you use Google Chrome with Pop-ups enabled.
Username & password for MyVU
You'll need a valid VU Student ID and password to log in to MyVU – find this in your offer email.
Your username is 's' (lower case) followed by your student ID; for example: s1234567.
Your default password is set up to 'Temp' (uppercase T) followed by your date of birth in the format TempDDMMYYYY. For example: 12 May 1983 is written as Temp12051983
After entering your temporary password, you'll be prompted to create a new password. Keep these details safe for future use.
