Application process

If you are an international applicant, you can submit scanned verified copies or scanned original copies of all your official documentation, except for the courses listed below.

The following information explains if your documents do need to be verified. This is important, as documents not correctly verified as a "true and accurate" copy will result in delays in the processing of your application and its consideration for admission. Please don't send originals as we don't return documents.

If you're applying for the following courses, you must submit verified copies of your previous awards and transcripts:

• Bachelor of Teaching (Primary)
• Bachelor of Teaching (Secondary)
• Master of Teaching (Primary)
• Master of Teaching (Secondary)
• Bachelor of Social Science (Psychology)(Hons)
• Postgraduate Diploma of Psychology
• Master of Clinical Psychology

Documentation that has been issued by My eQuals does not require additional verification.

For international documents/qualifications:

• your employed agent submitting your application and documents on your behalf
• Australian Embassy official
• High Commission or Trade Mission official
• Public Notary
• Australian Justice of the Peace with a registration number.

On each page you are submitting, they must write:

'This is a true copy of the original document sighted by me.'

Then sign and print the following details:

• name
• address
• business hours telephone number
• profession, occupation or organisation
• the current date.

They must include the official stamp or seal of the verifier's organisation on the copy if the organisation has such a stamp.

In addition to the above, a Justice of the Peace must also print their registration number and the state in which they are registered as a Justice of the Peace.
