Activate your Western Account
To set up your account, you will need to complete activating your Western Account by completing your Okta setup. You may have already completed this step after selecting “Activate my Western Account” from your offer email and following the instructions to activate and set up Okta for authentication. If you have not yet completed this step, please click on the button below:
Okta will be your method of authentication to access your student systems at Western. You’ll also be prompted to set up a Passkey as an additional layer of security. To complete this step, you’ll need to enter your student email address, which is your student number followed by @student.westernsydney.edu.au. For example:
12345678@student.westernsydney.edu.au.
You can find your student number in your offer email.
Follow the prompts to set up Okta and your Passkey. If you encounter any issues, contact the IT Service Desk for assistance by phone on (02) 9852 5111, or email at itservicedesk@westernsydney.edu.au.
Accept your offer and continue your enrolment
1. Log into MySR, accept your offer and complete the enrolment steps.
As you are enrolling in your first year or first session of a Bachelor's or Postgraduate program, you will be provided with a Guided Registration Sequence in MySR as one of your enrolment steps. The Guided Registration Sequence will help you select the recommended subjects for your first year of study. If you are a student at The College, your five subjects have been selected for you, based on the program you are studying. You can view the Registration Guides for a list of the subjects you’ll be studying in your first semester.
2. Confirm your personal details in MySR, including your full legal name and Australian contact information.
- Check your residency status and update it if it has changed. It’s a legal requirement and can impact your fees, including whether you can defer your tuition fees and Student Services and Amenities Fee.
- Domestic students should also ensure their Unique Student Identifier (USI) and Tax File Number (TFN) and electronic Commonwealth Assistance Form (eCAF) are completed. Ensure you have also given consent to the University to share your enrolment status with Transport for NSW if you intend on applying for an Opal card (travel concessions).
- International students do not need to provide a USI, TFN or complete an eCAF but should ensure their passport and visa details (if requested) are accurate.
Please note: transport concession (Opal) cards are only available to eligible domestic students.
