Frequently Asked Questions - Completing Students
Step-by-step
information for students completing their Bachelor of Nursing or Bachelor of
Midwifery program:
1. Student
eligibility
All students need to sure that their expected completion date is correct.
You can make this change to this date in
Enrol
Online. This date is important as it ensures that the University is
aware of your intention to graduate and in what Study Period they will be
completing their degree. Campus Central will email all students expecting to
graduate. It is important that students reply promptly to this email as it
enables Campus Central to commence their eligibility checks.
2. Student status changes to “provisional”
Campus Central produce a report each study period showing all students who
are eligible for completion (information gained from Step 1). It is this
based on this report that Campus Central generates complete individual
student records. Campus Central and the Program Administrative Officer: Year
3 manually examines each academic record to determine if each student meets
the requirements of their degree. Once this is completed, students’ status
is changed to provisional (on the basis that they successful complete any
currently enrolled courses) and a database of completing students is
generated.
3. Student status changes to “completed”
Once all final grades are entered, completing students enrolments are
checked to ensure all requirements are meet. Campus Central is informed by
the Program Administrative Officer: Year 3 that grades are entered and that
student now meets all requirements of their degree. Student status now
changed to “completed”.
4. Outstanding Debts / Bad Financial Standing (BFS)
All monies owed to the University, including overdue student loans, library
fees or charges, must be paid before you can complete your degree. Students
who are in bad financial standing will not be permitted to obtain their
results, graduate, or their academic transcript.
5. Graduation

the Graduations Office inviting you to register for your graduation. It is
important that you read this email carefully and register via
