Key dates

Think Education has four main intakes per year, for both full-time and part-time higher education degree and diploma students.

Future students

You can apply any time throughout the year for the next intake start date - or a future start date if you are planning ahead. We offer four main intakes per year, and two accelerated intakes (for more information on accelerated intakes please see below).

Census* date is the last date in the intake when domestic students can withdraw from enrolment without incurring a tuition fee or FEE-HELP liability.

* The deadline for an international student to finalise enrolment for the study period, after which financial liability will be incurred is one (1) calendar day before the start date of a study period. Please refer to the International Student Fees Policy for further information.
