Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE)What is an CoE?A Confirmation of Enrolment (COE) provides evidence of a student’s enrolment with the University of Wollongong. This evidence is required before DIAC will issue a student visa. The COE contains information about the Provider, course and duration of study in which the student has enrolled. By the University issuing an COE we are verifying that the University has accepted the student. It is an offence under section 19 of the ESOS Act to provide false or misleading information about accepted students, therefore the information provided on an COE must be true and correct at the time of issuing. All international students must have a COE for each course they apply for. A new COE can only be issued if you can demonstrate that you have been unable to complete your course on time due to compassionate/compelling cirmcumstances, an intervention strategy has been activated or due to an approved leave of absence. Please see when do I need a new COE? What information is on an COE?The following information is recorded on an COE:
- The student’s full name as it appears on their passport;
