After that we will process your application as fast as possible. If you have applied through TISC we are required to abide by TISC’s schedule of when we can make offers and this can be found on their website: www.tisc.edu.au.
If you have applied direct we will advise you as soon as possible of the outcome of your application.
If you have been successful you will receive an Offer Notification. On the back of that document are some very important instructions. They ask you to access our Virtual Information Pack at www.ecu.edu.au/commence.
Once you have entered the VIP site you must follow the steps:
Step 1
ACCEPT, DEFER or REJECT YOUR OFFER
You must accept, defer or reject your offer by the date specified on your Offer Notification. You may be able to defer your offer for up to 12 months before commencing your studies at ECU. Please read the instructions very carefully as some courses CANNOT be deferred.
Step 2
ACTIVATE YOUR ECU COMPUTER ACCOUNT and EMAIL LOGON
The VIP will then step you through the process to activate your ECU computer account and email logon. This is essential as all official communication from ECU will be sent to this email address.
