Depending on the policy of the institution, applicants for Admission may be able to apply for specific units within a course. Where this is allowed, the units applied for are recorded in this form. The form is also used to record an application outcome for each unit

This form is accessed through form ADMF3000, via the Application button (bottom block), and then through form ADMF3240, via the Unit button (bottom block).

Note:

  • This is different to recording a Unit Set against a Course Application in order to identify a particular 'major' sequence within the course.
  • The ability to record units as part of an application is restricted to Admission Process Types NON-AWARD, COURSE, SHORT-ADM and RE-ADMIT.
  • The units able to be recorded for an application are restricted to valid Unit Offerings for the Context Admission Period. This is determined from the Teaching Periods linked to the Admission Period. For example, if an Admission Period for a mid-year intake (ADM-2) has Teaching Period SEM-2 as a Subordinate Calendar, but not SEM-1, when units are entered for an application in ADM-2 only SEM-2 units would be available.

The availability of this form and the validations and processes initiated from it are dependent on the way the Subsystem has been set up at particular institutions.

Depending on setup, Offered Units may be automatically pre-enrolled in the Enrolments Subsystem upon the applicant being made an offer. Otherwise the Offered Units will be pre-enrolled by a batch process (ENRJ3100).
