Apologies

Help & more info

Please login in order to make an apology.

Only current U3APP members can enter apologies.

Click on the arrow to the left to read the policy relating to course attendance and apology.
  1. Out of courtesy to our tutors and to keep our records up-to-date, all members MUST apologise in advance if they are going to miss one or more classes.
  2. Three sequential non-attendances without an apology will mean that you will AUTOMATICALLY lose your place in that class, regardless of whether there is a waitlist or not.  Your place will be replaced by the person on the top on the waitlist, if there is a waitlist, or otherwise will be open for booking by another member.
  3. If you give notice of extended leave for five or more consecutive classes from weekly courses – or three or more from fortnightly courses or two or more from monthly courses – that vacated place will be offered to the first person on the waitlist, and you will in turn be moved to the top of the waitlist for that course.  This policy will only affect courses which have a waitlist and if required the tutor will be consulted to make sure that the move is appropriate.  
  4. When recording an Apology for a class use either:
    • APOLOGY(A): for all short-term illnesses, such as suffering flu-like symptoms, colds, sore throats, gastro, feeling unwell, have another appointment/commitment or holidays
    • INDISPOSED(I): When the reason for your extended absence is out of your control, for example, long-term illness such as cancer treatment, extensive hospitalisation and rehabilitation (eg hip/knee replacement), bereavement and family/personal matters (eg caring for a seriously ill family member). In these circumstances, there are both pastoral and administrative actions resulting as a matter of course. Our Member Liaison volunteers may contact you, an important part of caring for our community.  If you fall into this category of INDISPOSED(I), you will not be removed from your courses.

How to Enrol

On-line: after bookings have opened

On-line enrolments are preferred as this significantly reduces the amount of back-office work for our volunteers.

  • Login to the U3APP.org.au website.
  • Go to the Courses & Enrolling page.
  • Scroll down to find the course that you are interested in.
  • Does the course have spaces available?
    • Click on the course name to go to the booking page.
    • Click on “Book for this course or event”.
    • You will receive a confirmation email.  Please check your Junk/Spam folders as these automatically-generated emails often finish up there.
  • OR is the course shown as FULL?
    • Click on WAITLIST.

Paper Enrolment Form: before bookings open for First Semester

  • Obtain a paper Enrolment Form either from the Office or by printing an online copy available here.
  • Complete the paper Enrolment Form and submit it to the Office.

The start date for acceptance of paper Enrolment Forms for first semester is published on the U3APP website and in the e-Bulletin. Enrolment Forms received before this date are treated as though they had been received on the start date (ie there is no advantage to be gained by submitting early). On the start date and thereafter, paper Enrolment Forms are numbered in order of receipt.  Paper Enrolment forms are processed by U3APP volunteers on the same day as on-line bookings.

If your enrolment is successful, you will receive a confirmation email.  Please check your Junk/Spam folders as these automatically-generated emails often finish up there.

If your enrolment is unsuccessful,  you will receive an email telling you that you have been waitlisted.

Via the Office: after bookings have opened

  • Contact the office in person, or by email or phone.
