campus at Waurn Ponds and the Melbourne campus at Burwood. However not all disciplines are
offered in the Cloud mode nor at both campuses so it is important to check with the Faculty’s
Honours Enrolment Advisor before submitting your application.

Applications for Trimester 2 open in April and normally close in mid June.
