How to cancel a form in my.unimelb
This is a step by step guide on how to cancel forms that you do not intend to submit for approval.
Forms you cannot cancel
Some forms cannot be cancelled by you once they have been submitted or created.
These include:
- A request form that has already been submitted
- A form created for a leave of absence or to withdraw from your course.
In the above instances, you will not be able to cancel the request. You will need to contact your faculty’s graduate research administrator and ask them to cancel the request on your behalf.
The graduate research administrator will need the form ID and form name (ie. Request Change of Study Rate #12345). Let them know the form was submitted or created in error and should be rejected.
How to cancel all other forms
All forms that you have started or opened that are not a leave or withdrawal request can be cancelled.
You may not wish to submit these forms for approval, as:
- Another form has been submitted for the same request
- The requested changes are no longer needed.
In this instance, follow these instructions to cancel the form.
1. Log into my.unimelb
2. Click on the Study Plan button. This will direct you to the Graduate Research Student Admin Tools dashboard.
3. Click on the My Graduate Research Student Forms link. This will open a new tab where you can view your submitted and in progress forms.
4. Click on the Responses tab.
5. Click on the title of the student form with a status of Yet to be submitted that you wish to cancel.
6. Click on the View button and select 'Open in new tab'.
7. This will open a full page view of the form.
8. Locate the Cancel Form checkbox and tick the box. It will be on page one of the three-page form.
9. Click the Save button.
10. Go to page three of the form and click on the Submit for Processing button.
11. The form’s status has now been updated to Cancelled.
