Canvas is ANU’s new Learning Management System, where you can access course materials, readings, lecture recordings, and submit assignments. You’ll be granted access to your courses on Canvas within 24–72 hours after enrolling via ANUHub.

The following standard census dates apply at ANU:

• First Semester Census Date is 5 April
• Second Semester Census Date is 31 August

Each course in a non-standard session has its own individual census date. Please look up course code on ANU Program and Courses to find the census date for that course.

A class summary is produced for each course. This document contains vital information including materials, texts, learning outcomes, and details on assessment and must be read by the student. It is available under the class tab of your course in Programs and Courses website, and on the Canvas course site at least two weeks prior to the course start date.

Students will be notified by email as early as possible when a course has to be cancelled or changed. Every effort will be made by the ANU Law School not to cancel courses unless absolutely necessary or due to circumstances beyond our control.

MyTimetable is the ANU official timetabling system enabling you to view the timetable for your enrobed courses, browse, then self-allocate to small teaching activities / tutorials.

• Timetable Planner - Opens mid-December (Semester One) and mid-June (Semester Two). This is not for allocation, but for planning only. It provides an opportunity to plan your timetable prior to the opening of MyTimetable.
• Student Allocation- Opens two weeks prior the semester start date

From Semester 1 2024, all compulsory courses in the ANU Law School Juris Doctor will be delivered on-campus only. Students will then benefit from the on-campus postgraduate student experience and become part of our vibrant campus community.

Some elective courses in the Juris Doctor will remain available online. In the latter years of their degree, students may elect to study some of their courses online (subject to the availability of online elective courses).

All students will receive an invoice on ANUHub. Your invoice will indicate the cost of your course tuition, and the due date for payment.

Eligible domestic students may apply for FEE-HELP through ANUHub to defer their fees to the Australian Taxation Office. Ensure you apply for FEE-HELP before the course Census Date or you will need to pay your fees upfront.

A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is a place at a university or higher education provider where the government pays part of your fees. The University has a limited number of these placements.

ANU and the ANU Law School offer a variety of Scholarships, Bursaries and Grants to support your studies.

Whether students need emergency accommodation, assistance with medical bills, or support to participate in a non-credit extracurricular activity, ANU offers a range of financial support options. You can find a list on our webpage here.

Students must enrol themselves for each term by the appropriate deadline.

Due to limited places in some courses and tutorial selections, we recommend that students enrol in their courses as early as possible, ideally before the course start date. Below, you'll find the University terms and their corresponding enrolment deadlines.
