Preference Mode
Before Semester 1 or 2 teaching period begins, you will be given an opportunity to indicate your preferred classes in order of preference. Take your time to consider your selections. This is an equitable process, not a first-in, first-served process.
What you need to do
- Login to mySchedule via the website or myStudentCentre and view your enrolled subjects under the ‘Enrolment’ menu. When a course appears with a Red icon, it means we’re still waiting for your preferences.
- Click each unit, enter your preferences and click Save. Once your preferences have been submitted your unit will change to Orange in the Enrolment menu. You can continue updating until the preference period closes (see Key dates below).
- If there's only a Blue information icon appearing next to a unit, you do not have to submit your preferences for that unit. This might be because it is a non-timetabled class, your enrolments are outside of Semester 1, or you’re part of a certain program. Further information about this unit will be provided to you before the commencement of classes., eg: via Moodle.

What happens next
After Preference Mode closes for sorting, mySchedule will not be available. During sorting, your preferences will be taken into account to create the best possible clash-free timetable for all students. There is no guarantee you will get your first preferences.
If your circumstances change, or you need to consider alternatives, you will be able to adjust your timetable during the Adjustment Mode.
If any of your unit enrolments in mySchedule have 'No action required' listed against them, this means that there is no timetabled classes for this unit so you don't need to make any changes in mySchedule.
If you are enrolled in units for non-standard terms (e.g. Winter, Summer, etc), your individual timetable will be provided directly during Adjustment Mode.
