New Applicant Appeals; Applicants wishing to rejoin the program; Excluded Applicants

An Admissions Appeals Committee (AAC) has been formed to consider appeals from new applicants who have been unsuccessful in either gaining an interview or entry in the Veterinary Science program and for applicants who have left the course, do not have an approved leave of absence and who wish to rejoin the program. The committee consists of any three members of the Admissions Committee plus one external member.

New Applicant Appeals

If you wish to appeal against your failure to be interviewed or offered a place in the Bachelor of Veterinary Science program at Charles Sturt University, please fill in the New Applicant Appeals Form.

Your appeal must be received at the School of Animal & Veterinary Sciences within 3 weeks of your being notified that your application was unsuccessful, or 3 weeks from the date of the University Admissions Centre (UAC) Main Offers, whichever is the earlier.

Applicants wishing to rejoin the program

Applicants who have left the course and do not have an Approved Leave of Absence and who wish to rejoin the program need to apply in writing to the Admissions Appeals Committee (AAC) as well as applying through either UAC (if you are no longer studying at CSU) or by submitting a Course Transfer Form (if you are studying another course at CSU).

This letter should explain:

You may be asked to appear before the AAC in person.

You must seek to re-enter the program within a three year timeframe of leaving the course in order to be considered for re-entry. After three years, students wishing to re-enter the course must follow the same procedures for entry as a student who has never been granted admission.

Applicants must apply to re-enter the program by the normal application closing dates. The AAC will respond to the application within a four week period.

Please send your letter to:

Excluded applicants

As exclusion on academic grounds is normally course specific; students can apply to study another award course while excluded. To recommence study in the course from which they have been excluded, students must reapply in competition with all other applicants when their period of exclusion is completed. Readmission is not automatic and they will need to reapply by the normal application closing dates.

In certain circumstances, usually if a student has been excluded for a second time, exclusion is from all CSU courses, but they will be notified of the provisions of their exclusion when they receive their notice. Students should familiarise themselves with the Academic Progress Regulations relating to "Conditions of Exclusion" for more detailed information.
