How Federation University Australia handles application dates
Federation University Australia assesses international applications on a rolling basis rather than to one fixed deadline. The date shown is a recommended time to apply for your intended intake, roughly three to four months before it starts. Applications are usually still accepted after it while places remain and there is time for a student visa. Federation University uses standard international cut-off dates for most courses, with earlier deadlines for some courses and for genuine-student documents, acceptance and payment. Search your course to confirm.
