How to: Register

Includes brief questions about your background.

The University is required to provide this information to the Australian Government. If any of the pre-filled information is incorrect, you need to update it. If you need to change your citizenship details, visit a Student Central location with your original citizenship papers (or certified copies).

Read this and select 'I Agree' to indicate that you understand your responsibilities as a student at Western Sydney University.

Use this form to give the university permission to share your details with Transport for NSW. If you are eligible, this will allow you to receive reduced fares on the Sydney transport network. This is not an Opal application form. Wait two days after completing your enrolment, then apply for your Opal concession card.

You need to complete the CAF form if you are an Australian citizen or Permanent resident – except if you are a Non-Award student, or Postgraduate research student with a Research Training Program (RTP) place.

Complete the form selecting the full up-front payment option.

You have the option to apply for a loan from the Australian Government to pay your tuition fees. This is called 'HECS-HELP' for undergraduate courses and 'FEE HELP' for most postgraduate courses.

If selecting the loan option, you must enter your Tax File Number (TFN). If you do not have one, you can still submit the form, and tick the Obtain a HECS-HELP Loan. However, you must later go back into My Student Records (MySR) and enter your TFN before the census date. If you do not, and then don't pay your fees upfront, your enrolment may be cancelled.

A Tax File Number is available from the Australian Taxation Office.(opens in a new window)

If you submit the form and then want to make a change, you'll need to wait till the next day. You can still continue with the rest of your enrolment on the same day.

This form is for your Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF).

You have a choice whether you want to defer the fee (pay it later) or skip the form and pay the fee upfront.

Note that if deferring the fee you must include your Tax File Number, even if you included if on the CAF form.

Start by deciding which subjects you will register in. You do this outside of MySR.

New students: Go to Step 4 of the Enrolment Guide in MyWestern (opens in a new window) for a simple, automated process to select your first year, first term subjects.
