If your progress status shows as ‘On Probation’ in studentConnect, it means you have not made satisfactory progress in your course. You must contact your Student Adviser before re-enrolling as conditions and restrictions may apply to your enrolment. You will receive an email from the University explaining your progress status, and telling you what to do next.
Things to do next

Your student adviser can help you:

- Identify the causes or issues affecting your studies and appropriate strategies or support;
- Connect you to Support Services such as STUDYSmarter, the International Student Support team (where applicable), Counselling, Student Assist and other services or resources across the University;
