Your USI is your individual Australian education identification number for life. You need a USI if you are:

-
a new or continuing domestic student
-
a student who has completed their studies and will graduate from 2023​ ​
​
The process of applying is simple, the online tutorial video which is available here overviews the process. For further information about USI's please click here. Please apply for your USI using the link below.​
​
Tip for students who have a single name: when you apply for your USI, insert a dash (-) in the first name field and enter your name in the last name field.​
​
Once you have received your USI, you need to record the number in your Student Portal.​
​
Please note that if you are offshore you won't be able to apply for your USI until you arrive in Australia.
Offshore International Students Awaiting their Visa Decision
If you are an overseas student who is offshore awaiting your visa decision, please note that if you don't receive your visa decision and are not able to travel to Australia before your course commencement date you will need to lodge an application to defer your studies to APIC's next intake/study period.
​
If you find yourself in this situation your Education Agent/Consultant will be able to provide assistance with lodging a deferral application on your behalf should that be your preference. If you decide to lodge a deferral application yourself, please ensure that you keep your Education Agent/Consultant updated. APIC's online deferral application can be accessed via the Forms page of APIC's Student Hub.
​
APIC wishes students who are awaiting their visa decision all the best.
