2024 Visual Art and Design Courses

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.

Please note that most 1000-level courses require a permission code to enrol. Later year courses (2000/3000 level) generally have pre-requisites. If you meet pre-requisites, you can enrol yourself in the course in your ISIS account. However, for any reason you cannot enrol yourself in later year courses, you will need to request for a permission code to enrol.

To apply for a permission code for Semester 1 courses, please follow the CASS Permission Code Portal by clicking HERE

Note: the CASS permission code portal is only open for Semester 1 2024. To secure your place in Semester 2 2024 courses you will need to follow the following steps: 

- For 1000-level courses, please email the SoMAD Admin team at admin.somad@anu.edu.au to request for permission code(s).

- For later year courses, please contact course convenor for permission. If approved, your convenor will send their approval to our team for issuing a permission code. 

If a course you have tried to enrol in is full and you would like to be put on the waitlist, please register yourself HERE. If there is an available place (due to drop out or capacity increase), you will be contacted.

The College of Arts and Social Sciences (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.
