                         for Future
                         Students
                            While this is an uncertain time for us all, UNSW Global remains operational
                            and dedicated to providing a world-class education for all our students.
                            We’ve transitioned our programs to online teaching until further notice and
                            have adapted many aspects of our campus community as possible into the
                            virtual space. As a potential applicant or offer holder, this means you may
                            commence your studies online and complete your degree on campus when
                            borders reopen and travel restrictions ease.
                            For students located in Sydney, we have started a gradual and safe return to
                            campus activity in line with health guidelines. As part of our phased plans,
                            we are offering some optional on-campus learning, academic consultations
                            and support services for specific groups of students.
                            For information on the special arrangements in place for students during
                            COVID-19, including our plans to re-open our campus activity please
                            contact us to find out more.

                            If you do commence your studies outside of Australia, we recommend that
                            you apply for a student visa as soon as possible so that you are prepared to
                            travel to Sydney once restrictions ease. If your application for a student visa
                            is refused and you are unable to complete your program you will be granted
                            a refund of any unspent portion of your deposit. Please see UNSW Global’s
                            Refund and Fees Policy for further details. If you are a Diploma student,
