At the first step in the web acceptance process you will be able to access your University of Sydney student identification number (SID) and UniKey login name and password. This will give you access to the University's online student services and your student email. Access your SID here.

If you are unable to obtain your SID through this weblink you can apply for it here.

When you have obtained your SID, you can accept your offer online through the International Office Web Acceptance (IOWA) system.

When you accept your offer through IOWA, you must also arrange for payment of the deposit amount listed in your Course Offer Summary. Your place in your course is not confirmed until payment has been received. Students should note that some courses are subject to quotas so you MUST accept your offer early to confirm your place
If you wish to defer your offer, you can also do this through IOWA.
