School of Art & Design studio courses have a limited enrolment capacity. Students are advised to enrol as early as possible to maximise the opportunity of securing a place.
Most ARTV 1000-level courses require a permission code to enrol. Requests can be made via email: admin.somad@anu.edu.au
Many later year courses (2000/3000 level) have pre-requisites. If you meet the pre-requisites for a course, you will be able to self-enrol via your ISIS account. If for any reason you cannot self-enrol, you will need to request a permission code by completing an ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences (CASS) Permission Code Request form.
If a course you have tried to enrol in is full and you would like to be put on the waitlist, please email us at admin.somad@anu.edu.au. You will be contacted should a place become available.
The CASS Student Office handles all matters related to the student lifecycle for all students who are currently undertaking a CASS program. For advice about how to complete your studies on time and according to the rules, please contact the CASS Student Office.
