Mandatory details to verify USI

by

Unique Student Identifier (USI) serves as a lifelong education number for individuals. Not only does it provide a unique identifier, but it also maintains an online record of the vocational education and training (VET) a student has undertaken.

If a student already possesses a USI number, they can simply update it in the Unique Student Identifier field, and then proceed to update all USI-related information before selecting the save button. Upon saving the changes, the screen will refresh, presenting the student with a Verify button and a Use Manually Verified tick box option. This streamlined process ensures that educational records are accurate and easily accessible, benefiting both students and educational institutions alike.

Verify USI – When you select this button, the request gets sent to the https://www.usi.gov.au/providers/verify-student-usi site and you can check the status of the USI from the USI request screen in the system.

Use Manually Verified – You can select this tick box if you already have verified the USI from the https://www.usi.gov.au/providers/verify-student-usi site.

Required information with explanation:

  1. Country of Residence: Here you need to select the country from the dropdown to where the student belongs.
  2. Country of studying in: Here you need to select the country from the dropdown in which the student is studying which is Australia.

  3. At last, you need to select the country from the dropdown where the passport is issued.
