Master of Strategic Supply Chain Management (Extension)

Yes, if you have undertaken previous studies at another institution or have significant relevant employment experience, you may be eligible to apply for RPL. UTS assesses RPL only after an enrolment offer is accepted, and applications should be submitted before your initial enrolment.

You will be notified of your RPL outcome via your UTS webmail account within four to six weeks of application submission. All RPL decisions are final as per the Admissions and RPL Policy, though if dissatisfied you can submit a complaint to the Student Complaints Resolution Office or seek review from the Student Ombudsman.

RPL at UTS may be granted as specified credit (subject exemption), where prior learning is equivalent to a specific UTS subject, or unspecified credit (unspecified elective/general advanced standing), where prior learning counts towards an elective component but isn't equivalent to a specific UTS subject. Subject substitution may also be offered as an alternative.

Yes, international students should consider the impact of RPL on their course duration and student visa requirements. It is recommended to apply for RPL when applying for the UTS course to ensure processing before the letter of offer is issued. Applications made after the first session will only be considered in exceptional circumstances with a written statement explaining the delay.

You must provide certified official academic records and qualifications, along with supporting evidence such as subject outlines, comparison tables, or portfolios. Official academic records must be certified and sighted as true copies by authorised offices such as the UTS Student Centre, a Justice of the Peace, or an Australian Overseas Diplomatic Mission. Non-English documents must be officially translated and submitted with certified copies.
