Once you have your documentation, email us with your 8 digit student number, full name, correct date of birth and documentation.

If you are an international student, you must use your current passport to verify your full name and date of birth with Charles Sturt University. If you are residing offshore and you don't have a current passport from your country of citizenship, you may use your Government issued national identity papers to verify your full name and date of birth.

If you are an International student or a student in Bachelor of Teaching (Primary) or Bachelor of Teaching Secondary courses you will also need to provide verified copies of your documents. Go to How to verify your documents for further information.
