Entry schemes improve your chances of getting into your preferred course, by considering criteria other than your selection rank.
We offer different options for future students with demonstrated abilities in athletics or performance, volunteering or community engagement.
Under these schemes, you may gain early entry to your degree, benefit from ATAR adjustment factors, and be able to access a range of exclusive leadership development opportunities.

4. Gather your documents
You’ll need the following items and supporting documents to get your application underway:

- High school results: You’ll be required to provide details of your Year 11 and 12 school results, as well as your Tertiary Entrance Statement.
- Curriculum vitae (CV): If you need to demonstrate work experience to enter your chosen course, you’ll need to provide a copy of your current CV with your online application.
- Proof of name change: If your transcripts or qualifications are under a different name, you’ll need to provide proof of name change (eg, a marriage certificate).
Initial teacher education students
If you intend on studying teaching, you’ll also need to complete the following:
- demonstrate your suitability for teaching when you apply for your course

5. Apply
Most undergraduate course applications are submitted via a state Tertiary Admissions Centre (TAC).
Each state TAC operates a centralised application system and provides information and support for future students.
You can apply for entry to your preferred undergraduate course and campus at the relevant TAC website:
Direct application
In some circumstances, you apply for your undergraduate course directly to us. This can happen when:
-
VTAC applications have closed and you did not submit an application
- you’re applying for a business or law course and you have not recently completed secondary education.
- To find out if your preferred undergraduate course accepts direct applications, visit the relevant course page.
