You may enroll in 3 courses minumum per semester, and at max, 4 courses per semester.

The best time to get your UNSW ID card is before O-week commences, so, in other words this week, you practically just walk up to the e-spot building and there's no on e there. If you wait till o-week, you'll find that the line will be quite long...not sure if it's true but lol my friend said that he could see the crowds waiting at e-spot from anzac parade - university mall.

Min and max is not based on the number of courses. You can enrol in one subject if you like - you would end up being a part time student.

The "three courses minimum" is meant to refer to three 6uoc subjects to qualify as a full time student (18+uoc). The standard full-time load is four 6uoc (24uoc) subjects, but depending on the school/faculty you can overload and do more than 4*6uoc=24uoc per semester. Sometimes you might do five subjects, where its 3*6uoc+2*3uoc=24uoc.
