Objective
This article outlines the process to retrieve the Victorian Student Number (VSN) report from Paradigm, upload the report to Victorian Student Register (VSR) and then download the file from VSR. Lastly, you will need to upload the returned VSN file to Paradigm so the VSN field on student details will auto-populate from this action.

Key terms and concepts
Running Victorian Student Number (VSN) report from Paradigm will generate and submit a report of all pending student registration information relevant to the VSR (Victorian Student Register). This includes the process to retrieve the VSN (Victorian Student Number) for new students.
The Victorian Student Number (VSN)
The Victorian Student Number (VSN) is issued when the student is first enrolled in a Victorian educational provider which is usually when they start in Prep, and remains current until the student turns 25 years.
The provider applies for the VSN on the student’s behalf. VSNs are issued to all students enrolled in primary and secondary schools (Government, Catholic and Independent) and to students enrolled at a TAFE or in a funded and/or accredited VET course at a Registered Training Organisation.
VSNs are nine-digit numbers that are similar to a tax file number, for example, 982567013.
