The CASS Student Office handles all matters related to the student lifecycle for all students who are currently undertaking a CASS program. For advice about how to complete your studies on time and according to the rules, please contact the CASS Student Office.
Courses can be subject to change
Many later year courses (2000/3000 level) have pre-requisites. If you meet the pre-requisites for a course, you will be able to self-enrol via your ANUHub account. If for any reason you cannot self-enrol, you will need to request a permission code by completing an ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences (CASS) Permission Code Request form.
