13      Decision on application for admission

(1)    This section applies if a person makes an application under section 12 for admission to a program for a coursework award.

(2)    The Delegated Authority must decide the application.

(3)    However, the Delegated Authority may, by written notice given to the applicant, require the applicant to provide any information or document that the Delegated Authority reasonably needs to decide the application.

(4)    If the Delegated Authority requires the applicant to provide information or a document, the Delegated authority need not consider the application until the applicant complies with the requirement.

(5)    In deciding the application, the Delegated Authority must:

(a)    have regard to the vision, values and strategies for change set by the Council for the University; and

(b)    comply with University legislation and the policies and procedures of the University.

             [Note: For the vision, values and strategies for change set by the Council for the University, see the University's Corporate Plan.]

(6)    After the Delegated Authority decides the application, the Registrar must tell the applicant in writing:

(a)    whether the applicant has been offered admission to the program; and

(b)    if the applicant has been offered admission to the program—about any conditions imposed by the Delegated Authority on the applicant's admission or enrolment

             [Note: A decision not to offer to admit the applicant to the program is reviewable under Part 7 (Review of decisions).]

(7)    If the applicant is offered admission to the program, the offer of admission:

(a)    must state the session in relation to which the offer of admission is effective; and

(b)    must include, or be accompanied by, instructions on how to:

(i)    accept the offer; or

(ii)    if the enrolment can be deferred—accept the offer, but apply to defer enrolment to a later session; or

(iii)    decline the offer; and

(c)    may include any additional information the Registrar considers appropriate.

(8)    However, if the Delegated Authority imposed conditions on the applicant's admission, an offer of admission may not be made to the applicant until the conditions have been met.

(9)    To remove any doubt, the applicant does not become a student of the University, or in the program, only because the applicant is offered admission to the program.
