The application process
Applying for semester 1
You need to apply to Curtin through the Tertiary Institutions Service Centre (TISC). TISC processes applications for places in undergraduate courses in all four of Western Australia's public universities.
You may only apply once for university entry in any one year. You can choose up to six courses in order of preference. TISC will ensure that you are offered a place for your highest preference in which there is a place available and for which you are qualified.
You can add new preferences and change the order of your preferences, subject to closing dates. For the exact closing dates for changing your preferences, check the current TISC guide, visit the TISC website or phone +61 8 9318 8000.
