Non-Award
Non-award or non-degree study at postgraduate level allows you to build on your knowledge and skills as a graduate, exploring new areas of study, achieving professional development KPIs, or retaining your academic interest in a favourite subject.
You'll be attending all classes for your Unit or Units of Study with students enrolled toward the completion of a postgraduate degree, diploma or certificate, and your results and grades will be formally recorded on your academic record. Postgraduate non-award study is a popular pathway to enter a postgraduate course of study later when you can apply for credit for your non-award results and grades to be counted toward your degree requirements.
Students who wish to undertake one or more units of study (subjects) for their own interest but not towards a degree, may enroll in single units as a non-award student.
All units listed under Postgraduate Coursework Table of Units of Study are available to non-award students. For information regarding fees of a particular unit, please refer to the Sydney University units of study database.
Admission as a non-award student is assessed on an individual basis. Permission is required from the department through which each unit is administered and is necessary for the application to be processed. Applications are made directly to the University via the Online Application portal. Visit the How to apply page. for more information.
