The new rules do not impact students who are already holding concurrent enrolments. However, students looking to enroll in a second course concurrently after the first six months of their principal course of study will need to obtain approval from their education provider. There are a few exceptions. «For example, students will still be able to enroll concurrently in a course that is an approved component of a combined or double degree.
