Entry requirements for current Year 12s and school leavers

(Australian citizens, holders of an Australian permanent resident visa and New Zealand citizens)

Please note that meeting the minimum entry requirements does not guarantee entry to a course as there may be fewer places available in a course than the number of applications received.

Some courses have a published 'Clearly In' ENTER (Equivalent National Tertiary Entrance Rank) score. This score is determined during the selection process and depends upon the number of places available and the number of applications received. Therefore this score cannot be predicted in advance of the selection period.
