    Requirements

    Entry Requirements

    One of the following:

    • successful completion of the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) or its equivalent, such as an interstate or international Year 12 qualification
    • completion or partial completion of a degree.

    Guaranteed Entry ATAR

    80

    You’ll be guaranteed a place in this course if you meet or exceed the ATAR Guaranteed Entry Score, provided you meet the course prerequisites.

    If your ATAR is below the guaranteed entry score, you can still be offered a place as your ATAR may be adjusted based on subject adjustments, equity schemes or other factors.

    Subject adjustments:

    • A study score of 25 in any Business, any Humanities, Literature, any LOTE, or Theatre Studies equals 2 aggregate points per study.
    • A study score of 30 in any Business, any Humanities, Literature, any LOTE, or Theatre Studies equals 3 aggregate points per study.

    Overall maximum of 12 points. Subject adjustment points are applied to the aggregate, not the ATAR.

    Students admitted to the course with prior tertiary studies that satisfy part of the academic requirements of this course may be eligible for academic credit.

    Successful completion of Australian Year 12 or equivalent overseas qualification.


    This will be assessed at the time of your application. To check your eligibility for this course, visit our entry requirements for international students page.
