For the Preference Details and Offer Details Files, this code must reflect the Australian postcode or overseas country code of the campus of the Higher Education Provider where the applicant would be primarily undertaking the course of study. Where possible, the postcode should reflect the location of the campus rather than the postal address. If course is taken externally or location is not specified, then the postcode to be reported is that of the campus of the institution from where the course is administered.
