Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • Undergraduate Computer Science: accepted secondary or other published pathway, English-subject and qualification-equivalence requirements; ATAR is not an Indian percentage.
  • Postgraduate IT: a bachelor's in any discipline meets the listed academic criterion for the 16-credit route.
  • Related study/experience can support shorter routes, subject to individual assessment and selection.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • Bachelor of Computer Science lists IELTS 6.0 with no band below 6.0.
  • Master of Information Technology lists IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0 or accepted alternative evidence.
  • Verify the exact degree and current entry conditions, not a universal Deakin threshold.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • Master of Information Technology lists March, July and November options in the 2027 guide.
  • Check the actual campus and route; November entry is not available for every degree.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • Programme- and applicant-country-dependent.
  • Use the current international March-start page and Deakin's admissions advice for India; a country-specific India deadline was not verified from that page.
  • The generic course page's 7 February 2027 direct deadline must not be presented as the offshore India deadline without confirmation.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • Deakin's official 2027 International Course Guide lists AUD45,800 annual international tuition for Master of Information Technology S776.
  • Annual master's estimates use the guide's normal full-time load and are not the full cost of a 1–2 year programme; credit, electives and later annual changes can alter the total.
  • Living costs, insurance and other charges are additional.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • Deakin's international scholarship page describes academic-merit consideration for most awards and separate eligibility conditions.
  • It includes international tuition-reduction awards; the amount and selection are not universal.
  • Confirm the current named scholarship, course exclusions, applicant region and offer conditions before displaying a reduced net fee.
