How the appeal process works
For the course you are appealing for, you must meet both the minimum entry requirement of the course and the net aggregate score of the last admitted applicant posted to the course.
While schools and institutions will evaluate each appeal on a case-by-case basis, they will not be able to accede to all appeals due to limited vacancies available.
If you have serious health concerns and assess that the posted course and institution is unable to accommodate your physical well-being, you may appeal for a school transfer. These appeals will only be considered on an exceptional basis for students with:
- Serious medical conditions like chronic heart conditions or kidney problems.
- Severe physical impairments that require permanent accessibility support like the use of a wheelchair.
After you submitted your appeal
