Need to drop a unit? You can do this easily through the student portal. Be sure to check the census date and understand how it may affect your study load, fees and academic record. 

Students can withdraw from a unit before the Census date via the student portal:  

  1. Log into My Swinburne 

  2. Select My Study  

  3. Select ‘Manage my course’ 

  4. Select ‘Withdraw from a unit’  

After the Census date, you can only withdraw by submitting an Enrolment Amendment form.
