When applying to Deakin, please take note of the application deadlines for each trimester. These dates vary by country based on the time it takes for us to assess your application and student visa processing time.
For July (Trimester 2) 2024 intake, the application deadlines are:
We recommend that applicants engage a Deakin authorised agent. Our global network of experienced agents are trained to provide advice and information on Deakin University and our degrees.
Use our course finder to discover your ideal degree. On each course page you will find information on entry requirements, professional recognition, career opportunities, course structure, fees and more.
The course page also tells you which of our four Australian campuses the course is offered on and in which trimester you can start.
Entry requirements differ depending on your degree or country of residence. Before starting your application, read through the entry requirements on the course page entry requirement tab.
You can enrol at the Deakin University English Language Institute and study a course to improve your English language skills. If you pass, this can help you get into most Deakin degrees. Please note, this page is available in both Indonesian and Vietnamese.
Deakin College is your first step towards your dream degree at Deakin University. With small class sizes and a supportive environment, Deakin College sets you up for success at university.
You will need to include document with your application such as award certificates (diplomas), academic transcripts and your identity papers (passport). Most documents need to be certified. Take the original document and a photocopy to an authorised person (for example: justice of the peace, public notary, member of the police force or Australian lawyer) to sign. Documents in languages other than English will also need to be translated.
We recommend that you include all documents with your application submission. This allows us to process your application quickly. However if you are waiting for something, such as your IELTS result, you can submit an incomplete application. We can start to process but cannot make an offer until all we have all documents.
Applying as early as possible gives you more time to arrange your visa, travel and accommodation if your application is successful.
If you are working with a Deakin authorised agent, they will submit your application for you. Depending on your nationality and country of residence, you may be required to submit through an agent.
If you choose to submit without an agent, use our online international student application service StudyLink Connect.

We understand that the application process can be overwhelming, so we have developed a video guide featuring Deakin students Tatyana and Kaweesha. They talk you through entry requirements, organising your documents and submitting your application.
You will receive an acknowledgement email from Deakin within two days of applying. Your application will be allocated to a case officer who will then assess your documents and be in contact if they require anything further to make a full assessment.
You will get an outcome for your application within the following timeframes:
If your application is successful, you will receive a Letter of Offer. Then you are just a few steps away from joining us at Deakin! We recommend you accept your offer as soon as possible after receiving it so you can apply for your visa sooner.
You will need to attach documents supporting your level of English proficiency, according to the English language requirements of your chosen degree.
If you completed an Australian Year 12 in Australia or overseas you should apply for undergraduate courses through the Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre (VTAC), as well as directly to Deakin through StudyLink Connect. Applying through StudyLink Connect and VTAC will allow us to make you a conditional offer before you receive your ATAR score.
If you have studied before or been in the workforce, you could use your qualifications to reduce the number of subjects or units in your degree, finish earlier and pay less. This is called recognition of prior learning. When you fill in the application form, we’ll ask you about your tertiary education and work experience, and request certified documents.
Deakin offers scholarships to assist international students throughout their studies, and you may be eligible. Scholarships are merit based. Some have eligibility criteria based on your nationality or what you are studying. There is a limited in number of scholarships available and most are awarded on a first come, first served basis. The earlier you apply, the better chance you have of being offered a scholarship.
Deakin's international tuition fees vary depending on the degree and units you choose, as well as your level of study. The fee payment process is simple and easy for students to use. Scholarships are deducted from your fees.
Your personal statement should be relevant, well-written and uniquely about you. It is your opportunity to explain or expand on the other documents you submit as part of your application. Not all courses require a personal statement as part of the application.

I chose to study at Deakin as postgraduate artificial intelligence degrees are not easy to find in all countries and there are very few universities who offer this course in Australia.
