Pages 2 and 3 in the Enrolment Guides outline what to bring with you and the easy steps to enrolling.
You will be required to pay all or part of your fees at enrolment depending on the course you are doing. Your fees will be calculated on the day. Visit the Fees and Charges page for more information. If you are enrolling in a certificate level course and hold a current Centrelink Health Care Card or Pension Card you may be eligible to receive a tuition fee concession so bring your card with you to enrolment.
If you are enrolling in a course at Diploma or above level, details of your fees can be found in the Schedule of Fees under the VET FEE-HELP link. If you are enrolling at this level you will be required to prove your eligibility for a Government Subsidised Place (GSP).

VTAC Applicants
Students who have made an application through VTAC will receive a formal letter from VTAC, which outlines the study offer being made, and confirms their enrolment details.
Direct Applicants
Students who have applied for a non-VTAC course will receive notification from their teaching department along with an Enrolment Guide, enrolment details and date.
Apprentice/Trainee Applicants
The Australian Apprenticeship Centre will visit the workplace to sign all paperwork between the apprentice and employer. The AAC enters this information into the computer system, and Holmesglen downloads student details every Monday. New students and employers are then notified of the training commencement date approximately four to six weeks before the start date. Enrolment and payment are required prior to commencement.
Does Holmesglen offer mid year enrolment?
Yes.
Starting mid year offers the following benefits:
- You don't have to go through VTAC - mid year applicants apply directly to Holmesglen
- A six-month head start - you don't need to wait until January the following year
- A second chance - if you didn't get into your desired course at the start of the year, or have decided to change direction, you can make that change mid year and start your studies.
