Registration

To make a university application on the web you need to be registered.

You are already registered if:

• You are currently enrolled in any Western Australian Curriculum Council Year 12 subjects/courses in 2008. Your TISC number is the same as your Curriculum Council number.

• You have requested information or sat the Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT) in Western Australia from March onwards of this year. Your TISC number would have been advised on a letter from TISC. If you cannot locate this number please telephone our office on (08) 9318 8000 during normal office hours.

• If you have requested information about STAT and also are currently enrolled in Curriculum Council Year 12 subjects/courses you may have two numbers to choose from. Please use the Curriculum Council number to apply. If you do not, there will be delays in matching your results with your application to university. This, in turn, may affect offers.

If none of the above applies, you must register with TISC Online before you can apply. Click here to begin the registration process.

Previously Registered with TISC

Every year TISC begins a new database for each application cycle. Previous year(s) TISC numbers have been archived and can no longer be used. Please click here to register again and during registration you will be able to select a password. At the end of the registration process your user id will be advised onscreen. This is the number you use to lodge an application.

To Start a University Application

• To start an application you need to login then follow step by step instructions on the welcome page or under Online Application Enter/Update from the left hand menu.

• As you work through the pages of the application you will be asked several questions. The questions noted in Red must be answered, while any other questions are optional.

• You may logout at any stage during the application and return at a later date. Your application is not active until you have declared and made payment.

• Please note we suggest you use the Next Page, Previous Page buttons incorporated into the pages of our site. This will automatically save the changes you make on the current page. These buttons, where provided, will appear towards the end of the page. Using Back and Forward buttons on your browser toolbar may result in loss of unsaved information on the current page.

• Please remember that there are closing dates in applying to university. Our calendar will advise you of the dates. These dates are absolute.

Lodgement of Application

• Your application is only forwarded to TISC once the payment has been completed. When you declare, your application is locked, awaiting payment to TISC. There are time limits related to the acceptance of payments. Your coversheet will advise you of the date.

• Make sure you read your coversheet. Your coversheet will advise you of the documentation that is to be submitted by you in support of your application.

• Once the payment has been processed you will be able to amend your preferences and change your contact details. Any other information cannot be changed. If you find that you have forgotten to add something or made an error you will have to submit the changes in writing to TISC. Click here for the Applications Changes Form.

• Be aware that TISC is under no obligation to accept payment of applications if received after the required date. Applications that have not been paid are considered invalid and will not be included in university offers.

If you deferred your studies to commence in February 2009, please note the following.

If your deferred place is from Curtin University of Technology, Edith Cowan University or Murdoch University , and it is your only preference this year, you must apply direct to the university concerned. Please submit a copy of the deferral letter from the university concerned along with any supporting documentation.

If your deferred place is from The University of Western Australia, and it is your only preference this year, you must re-register and lodge an application through TISC. In these circumstances, you are not required to submit any supporting academic documentation with your application. All that you are required to submit with your application web coversheet is a copy of the deferral letter which the university would have sent you this year.

If you also wish to apply for another course at any of the universities, you must apply through TISC. In these circumstances, you will need to provide any supporting academic documentation with your application. TISC does not retain supporting documentation from one admissions year to another. Please submit a copy of the deferral letter from the university concerned along with any supporting documentation.

You can put your deferred course anywhere in your list of preferences. If it is not possible to offer you a higher preference, your deferred course will be re-offered to you. You will not be offered any course that you place lower than your deferred course. Should you require further details on how the preference system works, please refer to "Offers of Admission".

You are still guaranteed your deferred course as long as you apply for the deferred course before the closing dates.

Changing Preferences

• To change preferences you first need to have a completed application with TISC. This means that you have declared and the payment has been processed. You are not required to re-register with TISC Online. Just log in using your TISC number and password.

• Closing dates are applicable when changing preferences, please refer to our calendar.
