More details on using SMS to receive your results
For each of your courses, the SMS text message gives you the course name in abbreviated form, your HSC mark and your performance band. You do not receive your assessment mark or your examination mark.
If you want to receive your HSC results automatically by SMS you should pre-register for the SMS service by text-messaging your student number and PIN to 0427 659 900. A return text message will confirm that you have registered for the service. See the instructions for details.
The SMS results message will be sent to your mobile phone at approximately 6.00 am on Wednesday 17 December. You might not get it straight away, depending on the traffic on your provider network.
Only one mobile phone number per student can be on the register for the release of HSC results via SMS message. If you register more than one phone number, only the last registered number will receive your results message.
You should check that your phone is in credit, and that there is room for messages in your phone’s inbox. If the phone’s text memory is full, the handset may reject the SMS.
The SMS service will be charged, at the standard price of a text message, by your mobile service provider.
If you do not pre-register, you can still get your results by SMS by messaging your student number and PIN to the service at any time after 6.00 am on 17 December. See the instructions for details.
