Enrolment load (study load)
When you enrol in units at Curtin you will have an enrolment load, or study load, that comprises credit points. Typically, a unit at Curtin is worth 25 credit points, however it does vary - you will be able to check your units and the associated credit point weighting using eStudent in OASIS.
A full-time study load for the majority of our courses is equal to 75 credits or above.
For international students on student visas the full-time load is directly related to the course and is explained on the initial Letter of Offer. With the exception of a small number of courses the load is 100 credits. It is a formal requirement of the University and a condition of a DIAC-issued student visa for all international students on student visas to be enrolled full-time unless otherwise approved.
