Census dates
Subjects of Study 2013
Each subject of study offered at the University will have a census date. Students will incur fees for all subjects that they are enrolled in on the census day for the subject.
For example; for Semester 1 2013, the census date is Thursday 4 April 2013. This is the last day on which a student may withdraw from a subject without financial penalty. Any subject in which a student is enrolled on Friday 5 April 2013 will be included in their fee assessment.

Dates for System-generated KN Grades
KN Grade
If a student withdraws from a subject after two thirds of the teaching period has passed but before the end of teaching period, they will have a KN grade recorded against that subject. 'KN' signifies that a student has withdrawn with academic penalty (i.e. counted as a failure).
Last Withdrawal Without Fail Date
The last withdrawal without fail date is the last day on which a student may withdraw from a subject without academic penalty.
For example, for semester 1, 2013 subjects, the last withdrawal without fail date is Monday 6 May 2013. Any semester 1 subject from which a student withdraws after Monday 6 May 2013 will receive 'KN' grade for that subject.
A student cannot withdraw from a subject after the teaching period has ended.
