eExemptions
If you’re unable to access OASIS at least once a week due to a disability, medical condition, or another compelling reason, you can apply for an eExemption. If approved, all Official Communications (OCs) will be sent to your preferred mailing address instead.
Before you apply
eExemptions are approved only in exceptional circumstances. To be eligible, you’ll need to provide clear evidence of a genuine inability to access OASIS on at least a weekly basis. Slow internet connections aren’t considered grounds for an eExemption.
You’ll need to provide independent supporting evidence with your application — for example, a letter from your medical practitioner, employer, or counsellor. If a Curtin counsellor has supported your request, separate documentation isn’t required.
How to apply
- Download and complete the eExemption application form [.pdf 89kB].
- Attach your supporting evidence.
- Submit the completed form. Forms are also available to print from Curtin Connect or the University Counselling Service.
Make sure the form is fully completed and all evidence is attached — incomplete applications will be returned before processing.
What happens next
Your application will be reviewed and processed within 10 working days. You will receive written notification of the outcome sent to the preferred mailing address we have on record.
Until an eExemption is approved, you’ll continue to receive OCs through OASIS as normal.
