Stand Clear of the Closing Doors (Graphic Design)<br />

In our fast-paced, contemporary society, we are often led to believe that if<br />

we stand still for too long, the doors of opportunity will close on us. Visiting<br />

New York City in 2012, I was met with bright lights, loud noises, hordes of<br />

rushing people, and the exhilaration that characterises NYC. This place, with<br />

all its splendour and excitement, was the epitome of a brisk, contemporary,<br />

consumerist society. My work is an observation of the movement and energy<br />

of NYC, and its effects on individuals. In the city that never sleeps, are the<br />

inhabitants also required to remain sleepless<br />

ARTEXPRESS<br />

ARTEXPRESS is an annual exhibition of outstanding works selected from the<br />

NSW Higher School Certifi cate examination in Visual Arts. ARTEXPRESS is<br />

a joint project of the NSW Department of Education and Communities and the<br />

at the Art Gallery of NSW, the College of Fine Arts UNSW, Hazelhurst Regional<br />

Gallery and Arts <strong>Centre</strong>, Sydney Olympic Park and the Rocks from January<br />

to April, ARTEXPRESS then tours regional galleries throughout NSW for the<br />

remainder of the year.<br />

HOW TO USE THIS BOOKLET<br />

How to use this <strong>booklet</strong><br />

This <strong>booklet</strong> outlines general information, application procedures and closing<br />

dates for courses offered to international applicants by <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating<br />

institutions. It is designed to help you select the most appropriate range of<br />

courses to include in your application.<br />

This <strong>booklet</strong> does not contain in-depth information or regulations for each<br />

institution. For this, visit the institutions’ websites. You can also enquire by<br />

telephone, letter, email or in person at the admissions offi ce of each institution.<br />

The information in this <strong>booklet</strong> is accurate at July 2013 and is based<br />

on information supplied by each institution. For course changes since<br />

publication, visit www.uac.edu.au/international/<br />

As you can apply through <strong>UAC</strong> from early August 2013 until July <strong>2014</strong>,<br />

you may need access to the information in this <strong>booklet</strong> and/or <strong>UAC</strong>’s website<br />

until July <strong>2014</strong>.<br />

The <strong>booklet</strong> is divided into two main parts as follows:<br />

Part 1 General information<br />

In this part you will fi nd general information covering admission requirements<br />

and applying, and a table of available courses. The Table of courses lists<br />

undergraduate courses offered by participating institutions to international<br />

applicants.<br />

The course search facility on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/<br />

will also help you fi nd courses that are of interest to you.<br />

Part 2 <strong>UAC</strong>’s participation institutions<br />

In this part each of <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating institutions has its own entry. The<br />

entries are in alphabetical order by name of the institution. In each entry you<br />

will fi nd an overview of the institution, including information about admission<br />

requirements; tuition fees; Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC); acceptance,<br />

orientation, enrolment and deferment; and campus services and facilities.<br />

In Part 1 you will fi nd summary information on a range of areas including<br />

government requirements (eg student visa requirements and the<br />

Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) framework) and living<br />

expenses. Details of websites are provided so that you can access and,<br />

in most cases download, current and accurate information on all<br />

these areas.<br />

In the Table of courses you will fi nd a listing of courses available at<br />

participating institutions for <strong>International</strong> students. Each institution is<br />

listed alphabetically. It includes course information such as campus,<br />

course code, cut-off, tuition fees, course duration, start date, major offer<br />

round and additional selection criteria.<br />

To fi nd out detailed information about each course you will need to visit<br />

the course search on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/<br />

course-search/<br />

In Part 2 you will fi nd summary information about institutions including<br />

course entry requirements, courses offered, campus facilities, fee<br />

policies, enrolment information, living costs and accommodation options.<br />

On each institution’s website you will also fi nd detailed and<br />

comprehensive information, including course content and duration,<br />

qualifi cations obtained upon graduation, modes of study in which<br />

the courses are available and assessment methods, enrolment and<br />

progression policy and procedure (including the grounds on which your<br />

enrolment may be deferred, suspended or cancelled) and schooling<br />

options and approximate schooling costs for dependants, if relevant.<br />

You must check each institution’s information to make sure that you have<br />

current and accurate information on all these areas. Check Part 2 for<br />

institutions’ contact details, including their websites.<br />

1 About <strong>UAC</strong><br />

1.1 <strong>UAC</strong> – what we do<br />

The <strong>Universities</strong> <strong>Admissions</strong> <strong>Centre</strong> (<strong>UAC</strong>) is the central offi ce that processes<br />

applications for undergraduate courses, postgraduate courses, Educational<br />

Access Schemes and Equity Scholarships for <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating institutions.<br />

<strong>UAC</strong> also notifi es NSW HSC students of their ATAR (Australian Tertiary<br />

Admission Rank).<br />

Applying through <strong>UAC</strong> is easier than applying separately to each participating<br />

institution. <strong>UAC</strong> co-ordinates the process but institutions, not <strong>UAC</strong>, decide who<br />

receives an offer.<br />

1.2 <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating institutions<br />

Read section 2 on page 8 for a list of <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating institutions. You can<br />

read detailed information about <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating institutions in Part 2 from<br />

page 111.<br />

1.3 Can I apply as an international student<br />

You can apply as an international student + if you are NOT an Australian citizen<br />

(including dual citizens), or a New Zealand citizen (including dual citizens), or<br />

a permanent resident* of Australia.<br />

* Prospective permanent residents note If you are granted permanent<br />

resident status after you have applied to <strong>UAC</strong> as an international<br />

applicant you must apply again through <strong>UAC</strong> as an undergraduate.<br />

You must also write to the Senior Operations Offi cer at <strong>UAC</strong> as soon<br />

as possible to explain your change in status and provide a verifi ed copy<br />

of your current passport. If your status changes after you receive an offer<br />

you must speak with the individual institution concerned.<br />

1.4 Can I apply through <strong>UAC</strong><br />

You can apply through <strong>UAC</strong> if you are an international student + undertaking<br />

one of the following qualifi cations:<br />

■ an Australian Year 12 in Australia in 2013<br />

■ an Australian Year 12 outside Australia in 2013<br />

■ an <strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate in 2013 or May <strong>2014</strong><br />

■ a New Zealand National Certifi cate of Educational Achievement (NCEA)<br />

Level 3 in 2013.<br />

Visit www.uac.edu.au/international/ to apply. All other international students<br />

should apply directly to the institutions, not through <strong>UAC</strong>.<br />

If you must apply direct, contact the institutions to which you intend to<br />

apply without delay. Each institution has its own application procedures and<br />

admission requirements. Refer to Part 2.<br />

1.5 Who can’t apply through <strong>UAC</strong><br />

If you are an international student + in one of the following categories you apply<br />

directly to the relevant institution:<br />

possible. Each institution has its own application procedures and admission<br />

requirements. For contact details of <strong>UAC</strong>s participating institutions, see page 8.<br />

+ An international student is a person who is enrolled, or intends to<br />

3 About Australia<br />

AUSTRALIA AND ITS PEOPLE<br />

3.1 Land, population, and flora and fauna<br />

Australia is a nation that is almost as big as the USA or China in land area, but<br />

has a population of only 22 million people, most of whom live in the eastern<br />

and south-eastern coastal areas of the continent. Australia is the only<br />

country in the world to occupy an entire continent. Its isolation for 55 million<br />

years caused Australian plants and wildlife to develop uniquely, so that more<br />

than 80 per cent of its mammals, reptiles and fl owering plants can be found<br />

nowhere else in the world.<br />

3.2 Weather and climate<br />

Like all countries in the southern hemisphere, the Australian summer is<br />

December to February, autumn is March to May, winter is June to August and<br />

spring is September to November. This means that Christmas in Australia is<br />

in summer and coincides with the long student summer break; the student<br />

mid-year break is in winter.<br />

Because of its size, Australia’s weather varies signifi cantly in different parts<br />

of the continent. The north is tropical, the south-east and south-western tip<br />

are temperate and much of the central region is desert. Australia experiences<br />

many of nature’s extreme phenomena, including fl oods, droughts, bushfi re,<br />

storms and cyclones. The variety in climate and landscape provides many<br />

excellent tourist opportunities for international students.<br />

3.3 Diversity and multiculturalism<br />

Australia’s culturally diverse society includes its Indigenous people, who<br />

have inhabited Australia for more than 40,000 years. Much evidence of<br />

this period still exists today and there are more than 2,000 Aboriginal rock<br />

painting, drawing and engraving sites in Sydney and the surrounding areas<br />

alone. The fi rst European settlers arrived in 1788 and people from about 200<br />

countries have migrated to Australia since that time. The multicultural nature<br />

of Australian society means that tutors are highly experienced in teaching<br />

students from different countries and other students readily accept and<br />

interact with international students.<br />

As an international student, you will fi nd Australians open, welcoming and<br />

willing to help you adjust to the Australian way of life.<br />

Australia is a safe country with a very peaceful history. Your study progress<br />

is unlikely to be upset by political or civil unrest.<br />

3.4 Australian social culture<br />

Australia is a truly democratic nation. Australians believe that they have the<br />

right to express their opinions about any aspect of government. They respect<br />

the rights of others even though they may not share their views. Australians<br />

are free to meet with other people, in small or large groups, in public or private<br />

for social or political reasons and to practise their religion of choice. As an<br />

international student, you enjoy the same rights as every other member of<br />

Australian society and may openly celebrate your festivals in Australia.<br />

When you meet Australians for the fi rst time, they will usually shake your right<br />

hand. When you talk to Australians, it is customary to maintain eye contact<br />

to show that you are listening to the other person. It is considered impolite to<br />

ask someone you have just recently met about their age, their marital status<br />

or how much they earn. ‘Please’ and ‘thank you’ also form part of most polite<br />

conversations in Australia.<br />

Forming orderly queues when waiting for service is very important, and it<br />

is considered impolite if you do not wait for your turn. Punctuality is also<br />

important in Australia. If you are running late, you are expected to contact the<br />

other person to let them know.<br />

Adjusting to the Australian way of life may seem daunting. This is why <strong>UAC</strong>’s<br />

participating institutions have specialist student-support services which will<br />

help you settle into your new environment and provide practical advice for<br />

living in Australia and completing your studies.<br />

For more information on student support services, read the institution entries<br />

in Part 2.<br />

ABOUT AUSTRALIA<br />

3.5 Australian lifestyle<br />

The standard working week in Australia is Monday to Friday. On the weekend<br />

days of Saturday and Sunday many Australians spend time on recreational<br />

activities such as sports, which are an important part of the Australian<br />

lifestyle. Popular Australian sports include cricket, Australian rules football,<br />

rugby league, rugby union, soccer, swimming and tennis.<br />

Public holidays are also usually a time for recreation for most people. Many<br />

public holidays are celebrated nationally; some are only for individual states.<br />

3.6 Australian national flag, anthem and colours<br />

The Australian national fl ag features the Commonwealth Star, the fi ve stars<br />

of the Southern Cross constellation, and the combined crosses of St George,<br />

St Andrew and St Patrick. The union of crosses represents Australia’s early<br />

settlers. The Commonwealth Star has seven points to represent the six<br />

Australian states and the combined Australian territories. The stars of the<br />

Southern Cross constellation represent Australia’s geographic location in<br />

the southern hemisphere.<br />

Advance Australia Fair was declared the Australian national anthem in 1984.<br />

In the same year, green and gold were proclaimed as the national colours<br />

of Australia. Green represents the forests, gum trees and pastures of the<br />

Australian landscape, while gold represents the country’s beaches, mineral<br />

wealth, grain harvests and the fl eece of Australian wool.<br />

4 Applying, offers and enrolment<br />

APPLYING, OFFERS AND ENROLMENT<br />

This section provides an overview of the steps involved in applying for<br />

admission through <strong>UAC</strong>.<br />

If you have questions or concerns, fi nd out the answers before you apply.<br />

For questions about:<br />

■ your application – call <strong>UAC</strong> on +61 2 9752 0200<br />

■ admission requirements or course details – contact the<br />

relevant institution.<br />

If you are applying through an agent they will help you with your application.<br />

4.1 Before you apply<br />

Research your course options:<br />

■ check the Table of courses starting on page 47 for a summary of courses<br />

available<br />

■ visit the course search on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/<br />

course-search/ for detailed course descriptions<br />

■ read the institution entries in Part 2 and visit their websites for further<br />

information.<br />

Read section 8 for information about Australian Government requirements<br />

for international students, including visa and health cover requirements.<br />

Students under 18 years of age<br />

Read section 8.1 for information about specifi c requirements that you must<br />

meet if you are under 18 years of age.<br />

4.2 Choosing courses<br />

You can choose up to six courses, but if you’re interested in only one course,<br />

then enter only that course. If you’re interested in several courses, enter the<br />

course codes in order of preference up to the maximum of six.<br />

Remember: You can only include the courses listed in this <strong>booklet</strong> or on <strong>UAC</strong>’s<br />

website at www.uac.edu.au/international/course-search/. Visit <strong>UAC</strong>’s website<br />

for course updates and changes throughout the admission period.<br />

Does the order in which I list my courses matter<br />

Yes. Institutions use a preference-based offer system. This means that if you<br />

have listed more than one course for an institution, your courses for that<br />

institution will be considered in the order in which you have listed them. So,<br />

for each institution that you include in your application, you will receive only one<br />

offer in each offer run.<br />

However, each institution will consider your application separately. This means<br />

that if you include more than one institution in your application, you may<br />

receive more than one offer in each offer run.<br />

Example:<br />

Applicant A lists six courses, all for the University of Western Sydney. In each<br />

offer round, Applicant A will receive only one offer – to the highest course<br />

listed for which Applicant A is eligible and competitive enough.<br />

Applicant B lists six courses, three for Southern Cross University and three<br />

for the University of New England. In each offer run, Applicant B will receive<br />

two offers – one to the highest course listed at Southern Cross University for<br />

which Applicant B is eligible and competitive enough and one to the highest<br />

course listed at the University of New England for which Applicant B is eligible<br />

and competitive enough.<br />

Read section 4.8 for more information on offers.<br />

What should I remember when entering my courses<br />

Choose courses that you are interested in but also consider your realistic<br />

chances of getting into those courses. Choosing courses that you are good<br />

at and interested in is the fi rst step towards doing well at university.<br />

In the Table of courses starting on page 47 some institutions show the ATAR<br />

or equivalent cut-offs required by international Year 12 applicants for<br />

entry into each course in 2013; others show projected cut-offs for <strong>2014</strong>.<br />

Use these cut-offs as a guide when considering your courses. Remember<br />

that the cut-offs indicate the lowest ATAR or equivalent accepted for entry<br />

into the course – they do not represent the average ability of the students<br />

accepted for the course.<br />

Cut-offs for entry in <strong>2014</strong> will not be known until offers are made.<br />

Choosing pathway courses<br />

Some institutions offer pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong> which you can include<br />

in your list of preferences.<br />

Read section 5.6 for information about pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong>.<br />

Slipback offers<br />

Some institutions may make a slipback offer to a pathway course if you’re not<br />

eligible or competitive enough for the course to which you’ve applied.<br />

Read section 5.6 for information about slipback offers and pathway courses<br />

through <strong>UAC</strong>.<br />

Offers FAQ<br />

Who decides if I receive an offer<br />

Institutions decide which applicants receive unconditional offers. <strong>UAC</strong><br />

does not select applicants.<br />

How many offers can I receive<br />

You can receive only one offer per institution in each offer run.<br />

How will I know if I’ve received any offers<br />

You can fi nd out if you have received an unconditional offer by checking<br />

<strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/ – offers will be available<br />

to view as soon as institutions start making their offers. See section 4.8<br />

for offer round dates. You can also view and download your conditional<br />

offer letters through Check & Change. If you use an agent your agent will<br />

also be able to view your offer letters.<br />

I received an offer to a course I didn’t apply for. Why<br />

If you do not meet an institution’s requirements for entry to an<br />

undergraduate degree course that you have applied for, some institutions<br />

may make you an offer to another course with a lower level of study, such<br />

as an international foundation program. This is a slipback offer. For more<br />

information read 5.6 Pathway courses.<br />

Visit www.uac.edu.au/international/offers/ to fi nd out which institutions<br />

may make slipback offers.<br />

4.9 Acceptance, orientation, enrolment<br />

and deferment<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

Your offer will include instructions which you must read carefully.<br />

Check the institutions’ entries in Part 2 for information and links to<br />

their websites for details about these processes.<br />

If you are applying through an agent, your agent will help you.<br />

Accepting your offer<br />

If your application is successful, your offer letter will explain acceptance and<br />

enrolment dates and procedures at the institution. Follow the instructions in<br />

your offer letter about how to accept your offer, and how to pay the required<br />

tuition fee deposits and the compulsory Overseas Student Health Cover<br />

(OSHC) charge.<br />

Some institutions have online acceptance and facilities for online payment<br />

of fees and charges.<br />

Take particular notice of any deadlines the institution has for accepting the offer.<br />

Once you have accepted your offer and sent your payment, the institution will<br />

send you a Confi rmation of Enrolment (CoE). This document will allow you to<br />

obtain your student visa.<br />

Orientation<br />

Orientation programs are specifi cally designed to help you adjust to life at the<br />

institution and in Australia. For more information, read the institution entries<br />

in Part 2.<br />

Enrolment<br />

Most institutions include subject selection, course planning and enrolment<br />

sessions in their orientation programs. Some institutions have online<br />

enrolment. For more information, read the institution entries in Part 2.<br />

Deferment<br />

Deferment is where you are given permission from your institution to<br />

delay starting your course. Deferment is for a fi xed period, usually six months<br />

or one year. Remember that each institution has its own policy regarding<br />

deferment – refer to the Table of courses starting on page 47 and the<br />

institution entries in Part 2.<br />

Read section 8 for information about Australian Government requirements<br />

for international students, including visa and health cover requirements.<br />

Students under 18 years of age<br />

PROVIDING DOCUMENTS FAQ<br />

Are there any documents that <strong>UAC</strong> can get on my behalf<br />

In most cases, <strong>UAC</strong> can obtain your results at the following institutions without<br />

you having to supply us with verifi ed copies of those documents:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

Australian senior secondary assessment and certifi cation authorities<br />

Australian universities<br />

TAFE NSW<br />

TAFE ACT (CIT).<br />

Most institutions will not release academic records to <strong>UAC</strong> if you owe<br />

money to the institution (eg library fi nes). Non-release of your records may<br />

result in you not receiving an offer. <strong>UAC</strong> cannot assess qualifi cations using<br />

transcripts supplied by the applicant if non-release status has been advised<br />

by an institution.<br />

Which documents can’t <strong>UAC</strong> get on my behalf<br />

You will need to supply correctly verified (read ‘Verifying documents’ on<br />

page 23) documentation for the following qualifi cations, including proof of<br />

completion if applicable:<br />

■ TAFE studies outside NSW and the ACT<br />

■ enrolled nursing, secretarial or trade studies before 1994<br />

■ Australian Qualifi cations Framework (AQF) courses delivered by private<br />

providers. Documentation must indicate AQF accreditation. Your<br />

qualifi cation won’t be assessed without proof of accreditation<br />

■ state-accredited courses delivered by private providers. Documentation<br />

must indicate accreditation of the course by the relevant authority of<br />

the Australian state or territory, such as the NSW Vocational Education and<br />

Training Accreditation Board (VETAB). Your qualifi cation won’t be assessed<br />

without proof of accreditation<br />

■ overseas secondary or tertiary studies<br />

■ professional and paraprofessional qualifi cations. You must provide<br />

documentary evidence if you have a current Australian nurse’s registration.<br />

courses delivered by Australian private providers that are not accredited.<br />

Only those courses accredited under the Australian Qualifi cations<br />

Framework (AQF), or by the relevant state/territory accreditation authority,<br />

will be taken into account. Qualifi cations undertaken with private<br />

providers will not be assessed without proof of accreditation for the<br />

particular course.<br />

I am taking an exam in late 2013. How do I provide<br />

my results to <strong>UAC</strong><br />

You may not be able to provide all documentation with your application<br />

because you may be sitting for an examination or test at the end of 2013.<br />

If you are sitting an examination or test at the end of 2013, forward a correctly<br />

verified copy (read ‘Verifying documents’ on page 23) of your transcript to <strong>UAC</strong><br />

as soon as you receive it.<br />

I need to give proof of my qualifications. What kind of<br />

documents do I need to send to <strong>UAC</strong><br />

You may have to provide an offi cial transcript of your academic record. The<br />

transcript must be correctly verifi ed (read ‘Verifying documents’ on page 23)<br />

and show:<br />

■ the title of the course undertaken<br />

■ all subjects taken<br />

■ grades obtained (including failures)<br />

■ stage reached or qualifi cation gained<br />

■ proof of course completion (where course is complete)<br />

■ a copy of the grading scale where available.<br />

A collection of examination result slips isn’t acceptable. Apply for your<br />

transcript/s early – there may be a delay at some institutions in obtaining<br />

offi cial transcripts.<br />

If you have completed the course, the transcript you provide must state the<br />

award you gained. If the transcript doesn’t state that you have successfully<br />

completed the course, you must provide additional information; for example,<br />

a verified copy of your certifi cate or diploma.<br />

I have qualifications from overseas. What documents<br />

do I need to provide<br />

If your offi cial documents for your overseas study are not in English, you must<br />

supply verified copies (read ‘Verifying documents’ on page 23) of the following<br />

documents:<br />

■ the original language transcript of studies showing subjects and results<br />

■ the original language award certifi cate (if a qualifi cation has been<br />

completed)<br />

■ an English translation of these documents (see below for organisations<br />

that can translate your documents)<br />

■ a copy of the grading scale if available.<br />

Your documents must be translated by one of the following:<br />

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND SELECTION<br />

5 Admission requirements and selection<br />

To be offered a place in a course you must:<br />

1 be eligible to be considered<br />

2 be selected in competition with other eligible applicants<br />

3 have paid the <strong>UAC</strong> processing charge.<br />

To be eligible you must:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

meet the admission requirements of the institution offering the<br />

course/s. Read sections 5.1 to 5.6 below for a general guide to<br />

admission requirements; however, each institution sets its own<br />

admission requirements – read each institution’s entry in Part 2.<br />

meet the entrance requirements of the course/s. Some courses<br />

have course prerequisites or additional selection criteria set by the<br />

institutions. Courses with additional selection criteria usually have<br />

early closing dates – refer to the Table of courses starting on page 47.<br />

Check the latest course information on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at<br />

www.uac.edu.au/international/course-search/<br />

To be selected you must:<br />

■<br />

compete against other eligible applicants. Being eligible to be<br />

considered for a course does not guarantee you a place in the course.<br />

For general information about the selection process refer to section 5.7.<br />

Offers to applicants who have an Australian Tertiary<br />

<strong>Admissions</strong> Rank (ATAR) (or equivalent) below<br />

the cut-off<br />

In general terms, the cut-off for a course shows you the minimum ATAR<br />

needed by the majority of current Year 12 applicants when offers are<br />

made in <strong>2014</strong>.<br />

However, some applicants may receive an offer to a course even with an<br />

ATAR below the cut-off.<br />

Remember that your ATAR does not change or increase, even if you<br />

receive an offer to a course with a higher cut-off.<br />

There are a number of reasons why an institution might make you an<br />

offer to a course even though your ATAR is below the cut-off, including<br />

those listed below. Check each institution’s entry in Part 2 for more<br />

information.<br />

Also, some courses select Year 12 students based on criteria used in<br />

addition to, or instead of, the ATAR (such as a portfolio or interview).<br />

These courses do not have published cut-offs.<br />

Early offer schemes<br />

Some institutions have early offer schemes for Year 12 students.<br />

Through these schemes, Year 12 applicants may be selected for courses<br />

independently of their fi nal Year 12 results on the basis of a range of<br />

criteria, including recommendations provided by schools/colleges.<br />

For more information read each institution’s entry in Part 2.<br />

Performance in relevant subjects – bonus points<br />

Some institutions apply bonus points to a selection rank in recognition of<br />

performance in Year 12 subjects relevant to an applicant’s chosen course<br />

of study.<br />

Visit www.uac.edu.au/international/atar/bonuses.shtml for links to<br />

further information.<br />

Regional schemes – bonus points<br />

A number of institutions apply bonus points to an selection rank if an<br />

applicant lives and/or undertakes their Year 12 schooling in a certain<br />

area. Visit www.uac.edu.au/international/atar/regional.shtml for links to<br />

further information.<br />

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS<br />

5.1 Secondary studies<br />

Australian Year 12 qualifications<br />

If you are completing an Australian Year 12 qualifi cation in 2013, admission to<br />

most tertiary courses is based on your overall achievement in those studies.<br />

All Australian states and territories use a common scale, or index, which<br />

allows the comparison of overall measures of achievement in Year 12 across<br />

time and states – refer to the Year 12 comparison table on page 35.<br />

Admission to most tertiary courses is based on your measure of overall<br />

achievement in the following studies:<br />

■ For NSW Year 12 applicants, the ATAR as provided by the <strong>Universities</strong><br />

<strong>Admissions</strong> <strong>Centre</strong> (NSW & ACT) Pty Ltd (<strong>UAC</strong>) is used.<br />

■ For ACT Year 12 applicants, the ATAR as provided by the ACT Board of<br />

Senior Secondary Studies (ACTBSSS) is used.<br />

■ For Queensland Year 12 applicants, who are eligible for an Overall<br />

Position (OP) and apply to <strong>UAC</strong>, the rank as provided by the Queensland<br />

Studies Authority (QSA) is used to derive an equivalent ATAR. This rank is<br />

not reported to applicants. OPs shown in the conversion table on page 35<br />

can be used as a guide.<br />

Students who complete a Queensland Senior External Examination are not<br />

eligible for an OP; <strong>UAC</strong> calculates a <strong>UAC</strong> rank for these students.<br />

■ For South Australian and Northern Territory Year 12 applicants, the ATAR as<br />

provided by the South Australian Tertiary <strong>Admissions</strong> <strong>Centre</strong> (SATAC) is used.<br />

■ For Tasmanian Year 12 applicants, the ATAR as provided by the University<br />

of Tasmania, calculated by the Tasmanian Qualifi cations Authority, is used.<br />

■ For Victorian Year 12 applicants, the ATAR as calculated and distributed<br />

by the Victorian Tertiary <strong>Admissions</strong> <strong>Centre</strong> (VTAC) is used.<br />

■ For Western Australian Year 12 applicants, the ATAR as provided by the<br />

Tertiary Institutions Service <strong>Centre</strong> (TISC) is used.<br />

<strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate<br />

If you are completing an <strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate in 2013, a rank will<br />

be calculated for you by <strong>UAC</strong> provided that you are eligible for award of the<br />

<strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate Diploma or Bilingual Diploma.<br />

For more information, visit the <strong>UAC</strong> <strong>International</strong> website at www.uac.edu.au/<br />

international/faq/ib.shtml<br />

Read section 5.3 <strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate predicted grades.<br />

New Zealand NCEA Level 3 students<br />

If you are completing the New Zealand National Certifi cate of Educational<br />

Achievement (NCEA) Level 3 in 2013 and applying for admission through <strong>UAC</strong>,<br />

an Interstate Transfer Index (ITI) will be calculated for you by the New Zealand<br />

Qualifi cations Authority (NZQA), and provided to <strong>UAC</strong>. This will be used in<br />

the selection process, provided that you have fulfi lled university entrance<br />

requirements as set by NZQA.<br />

This ITI is not reported by NZQA to applicants. Queries about this ITI and<br />

university entrance requirements should be made to NZQA. For more<br />

information, visit www.nzqa.govt.nz<br />

5.2 Additional selection criteria<br />

In addition to achieving the standard of performance required for admission<br />

for certain courses, you must also satisfy any additional selection criteria.<br />

These criteria may include portfolio, interview, audition, questionnaire or test<br />

and are taken into account either instead of, or in conjunction with, your ATAR<br />

or equivalent.<br />

You must also fulfi l any subject prerequisite requirements for the course/s<br />

to which you are applying.<br />

Details of any additional selection criteria and subject prerequisites are<br />

outlined in the course descriptions available through the international course<br />

search on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/course-search/<br />

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND SELECTION<br />

5.4 English language proficiency<br />

If you have qualifi cations from countries where English is not the standard<br />

language of instruction, you must provide evidence of English language<br />

profi ciency. For requirements, read page 28 and visit <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at<br />

www.uac.edu.au/international/faq/elp.shtml<br />

5.5 Other qualifications<br />

You might also have other qualifi cations, for example you might have<br />

attempted a school-leaving qualifi cation before 2013 in Australia or overseas.<br />

You need to tell us about these qualifi cations when you apply so we can<br />

include these when we assess your application.<br />

5.6 Pathway courses<br />

Most institutions offer pathway options for applicants who don’t meet the<br />

entry requirements for their degree courses or need further support and<br />

preparation before studying at degree level. These generally include pathway<br />

courses offered by the institution.<br />

If you successfully complete a pathway course, an institution may guarantee<br />

entry into some degree courses. Otherwise you can use your pathway course<br />

studies to apply and compete for admission to degree courses. You may also<br />

be awarded credit for some studies undertaken in your pathway course.<br />

Pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong><br />

For 2013–14 admissions, a number of <strong>UAC</strong>’s participating institutions are<br />

offering pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong>, including AQF certifi cate courses and<br />

non-AQF enabling courses. Some institutions are also making slipback offers<br />

to pathway courses – see below.<br />

Institutions may offer their pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong> as a course that you<br />

can select using Apply and Check & Change, and/or as a slipback course.<br />

SELECTION<br />

5.7 Unconditional offers<br />

To receive an unconditional offer in a course you must:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

meet the admission requirements of the institution offering the course<br />

meet the course entry requirements. Some courses have course<br />

prerequisites or additional selection criteria. Courses with additional<br />

selection criteria usually have early closing dates.<br />

For further details read the course description on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at<br />

www.uac.edu.au/international/course-search/<br />

If you are completing an Australian Year 12 qualifi cation in 2013, either<br />

in Australia or overseas, you are usually assessed on the basis of your ATAR<br />

(ACT, NSW, NT, SA, TAS, VIC and WA) or your ATAR equivalent (QLD). Read<br />

section 5.1 for more information.<br />

If you are completing an <strong>International</strong> Baccalaureate in 2013 or a New<br />

Zealand NCEA Level 3 in 2013, you will generally be selected on the basis<br />

of your performance in these studies.<br />

Some courses select applicants on the basis of additional selection criteria –<br />

read section 5.2.<br />

Check each institution’s entry in Part 2 for more information about<br />

admission requirements.<br />

Does <strong>UAC</strong> or the institution decide who is made an offer<br />

to a course<br />

The institutions decide who they will make offers to. <strong>UAC</strong> doesn’t select<br />

applicants, and doesn’t have the power to persuade institutions to make<br />

a particular offer or to question decisions made by institutions.<br />

Pathway courses you can select<br />

Two institutions offer pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong> that you can include in<br />

your list of preferences:<br />

■ Southern Cross University<br />

■ University of Western Sydney.<br />

Use the course search at www.uac.edu.au/international/course-search/ to<br />

fi nd descriptions of these pathway courses.<br />

Read the course descriptions for these courses and contact the institution if<br />

you have any questions.<br />

Pathway courses to which institutions may make slipback offers<br />

Some institutions may make a slipback offer to a pathway course if you’re<br />

not eligible or competitive enough to receive an offer to the course to which<br />

you’ve applied. This means that you may receive an offer to a lower-level<br />

course instead of the course you’ve listed in your preferences. Visit<br />

www.uac.edu.au/international/offers/ to fi nd out which institutions may make<br />

slipback offers.<br />

Some institutions may include the same pathway course as a course you can<br />

select and as a slipback course.<br />

Remember:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

Slipback offers can only be made to a course at a lower level than the<br />

course listed in your preferences. For example, if you have a degree-level<br />

course in your list of preferences, an institution may make a slipback offer to<br />

a diploma or lower-level course.<br />

Slipback offers can only be made in place of courses listed higher in<br />

your preferences than the course to which you’ve received an offer. For<br />

example, if you receive an offer to your third preference, you may also<br />

receive a slipback offer in place of your fi rst and second preferences.<br />

Not all institutions will make slipback offers – visit www.uac.edu.au/<br />

international/offers/<br />

Slipback offers are released up to two days after scheduled offer rounds<br />

and you can access them in the same way as offers.<br />

ATAR<br />

6 The Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR)<br />

6.1 What is the ATAR<br />

Tertiary institutions in Australia have found that a selection rank based<br />

on a student’s overall academic achievement is the best single predictor<br />

of success for most tertiary courses.<br />

■ Metal and Engineering Examination 1<br />

■ Primary Industries Examination 1<br />

■ Retail Services Examination 1<br />

■ Tourism and Events Examination 1 .<br />

1 These are 240-hour Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses. An<br />

The ATAR is a number (not a mark) that indicates a student’s position in<br />

optional, written examination is offered for students who want their results<br />

relation to their Year 7 cohort, including students who did not complete<br />

from these courses to be available for inclusion in the calculation of their ATAR.<br />

Year 12. An ATAR of 80.00, for example, indicates that students with that<br />

ATAR have performed in the HSC better than 80 per cent of their Year 7 Who is eligible for an ATAR<br />

cohort, had all these Year 7 students completed Year 12 and been eligible<br />

for an ATAR. The ATAR is reported as a number between 0.00 and 99.95<br />

To be eligible for an ATAR in 2013, you must satisfactorily complete at least<br />

10 units of ATAR courses. These ATAR courses must include at least:<br />

with increments of 0.05.<br />

■ eight units from Category A courses<br />

The ATAR allows the comparison of students who have completed different ■ two units of English<br />

combinations of HSC courses. The ATAR is calculated solely for use by<br />

■ three Board Developed courses of two units or greater<br />

institutions, either on its own or in conjunction with other selection criteria,<br />

■ four subjects.<br />

to rank and select school leavers for admission to tertiary courses. For<br />

information about cut-offs, read section 6.11.<br />

Other criteria such as a portfolio, interview, audition, questionnaire or test<br />

may also be taken into account in conjunction with the ATAR for certain<br />

You will be considered to have satisfactorily completed a course if, in the<br />

principal’s view, there is suffi cient evidence that you have:<br />

(a) followed the course developed or endorsed by the Board<br />

courses. Details of any additional selection criteria are outlined in the course<br />

(b) applied yourself with diligence and sustained effort to the set tasks and<br />

descriptions on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/coursesearch/<br />

experiences provided in the course by the school<br />

Calculation of the ATAR is the responsibility of the Technical Committee<br />

on Scaling on behalf of the NSW Vice-Chancellors’ Committee (NSWVCC).<br />

Students who indicate on their HSC entry forms that they wish to be notifi ed of<br />

(c) achieved some or all of the course outcomes<br />

(d) completed at least 50 per cent of the HSC assessment tasks mandated<br />

by your school in that course.<br />

their ATAR will receive an ATAR Advice Notice from <strong>UAC</strong>. ATARs are also made You also need to make a serious attempt at the examination for the course.<br />

available to institutions for selection purposes.<br />

6.2 The ATAR Advice Notice<br />

Failure to satisfactorily complete a course will result in that course not<br />

While ATARs are calculated for all ATAR-eligible students, only students who<br />

contributing to the eligibility requirements. If the course is a 2-unit course with<br />

indicate on their HSC entry forms that they wish to be notifi ed of their ATAR<br />

an associated extension course, failure to satisfactorily complete the 2-unit<br />

receive an ATAR Advice Notice from <strong>UAC</strong>. These students will receive their<br />

course will result in neither the 2-unit nor the extension course contributing<br />

written Advice Notices the day after ATARs are released.<br />

towards your ATAR.<br />

The ATAR Advice Notice includes:<br />

■ the student’s ATAR<br />

Note: Students undertaking tertiary preparation programs such as<br />

■ a list of the ATAR courses that the student studied and the categorisation<br />

the Tertiary Preparation Certifi cate (TPC) and Open Foundation<br />

of each course<br />

do not receive an ATAR.<br />

■ the number of units of each ATAR course that contributed to the<br />

calculation of their ATAR.<br />

There are two cases where an ATAR will not be shown on the ATAR Advice<br />

Notice. The fi rst is when a student receives an ATAR between 0.00 and 30.00,<br />

in which case the ATAR will be indicated as ‘30 or less’. The second is when<br />

6.4 Calculation of the ATAR<br />

The ATAR is a rank based on an aggregate of scaled marks in 10 units of ATAR<br />

courses comprising your:<br />

the student has not met the requirements for an ATAR, in which case the ■ best two units of English<br />

statement ‘Not Eligible’ will appear.<br />

■ best eight units from your remaining units, which can include no more<br />

Students can access their ATAR from <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au – read<br />

‘Important information about the release of the 2013 ATAR’ on page 31.<br />

than two units of Category B courses.<br />

Although eligibility for an ATAR requires completion of at least four subjects,<br />

the aggregate may be based on less than four subjects; for example, English<br />

6.3 Eligibility for an ATAR in 2013<br />

Advanced, English Extension 1 and Extension 2, Mathematics Extension 1<br />

ATAR courses<br />

and Extension 2, and one other 2-unit course. But you must still satisfactorily<br />

complete at least four subjects to be eligible for an ATAR.<br />

There are many HSC courses but not all will contribute to an ATAR. Courses Marks to be included in the ATAR calculations can be accumulated over a<br />

that do contribute to the ATAR are Board Developed courses for which there fi ve-year period but if you repeat a course, only the last satisfactory attempt<br />

are formal examinations that yield graded assessments. These are termed is used in the calculation of the ATAR.<br />

ATAR courses.<br />

Scaled marks are calculated in the year the courses are completed.<br />

ATAR courses are classifi ed as either Category A or Category B courses.<br />

The criteria for Category A courses are academic rigour, depth of knowledge,<br />

the degree to which the course contributes to assumed knowledge for<br />

6.5 How is the ATAR determined<br />

tertiary studies and the coherence with other courses included in the ATAR<br />

calculations. Category B courses are those whose level of cognitive and<br />

performance demands are not regarded as satisfactory in themselves, though<br />

their contribution to a selection index is regarded as adequate if the other<br />

courses included in the aggregate are more academically demanding.<br />

In 2013 the Category B courses are:<br />

The NSW Board of Studies provides you with a profi le of marks that indicate<br />

how you have performed in your courses in relation to course performance<br />

standards. Both the Board’s marks and ATARs are derived from raw<br />

examination marks and moderated school assessments.<br />

With the exception of English, which is compulsory, you are free to choose your<br />

courses of study. Consequently, individual course candidatures vary in size and<br />

■ Automotive Examination 1<br />

nature, and there are many different enrolment patterns. Normally there are<br />

approximately 27,000 different enrolment patterns for ATAR-eligible students;<br />

■ Business Services Examination 1<br />

of these approximately 20,000 patterns are taken by only one student.<br />

■ Construction Examination 1<br />

Given the choice available, your rank in different courses will not necessarily<br />

■ Electrotechnology Examination 1<br />

have the same meaning. A good rank is more diffi cult to obtain when you are<br />

■ Entertainment Industry Examination 1<br />

competing against students of high academic ability. Because of the lack of<br />

■ Financial Services Examination 1<br />

comparability, your raw marks are scaled before they are added to give the<br />

■ Hospitality Examination 1<br />

aggregates from which ATARs are determined.<br />

■ Human Services Examination 1<br />

The scaling process is designed to encourage you to take courses for which<br />

you are best suited and which best prepare you for your future studies.<br />

<strong>UAC</strong> 2013–14 <strong>International</strong> Booklet 29


ATAR<br />

The underlying principle is that you should be neither advantaged nor<br />

disadvantaged by choosing one HSC course over another. The scaling<br />

algorithm estimates what your marks would have been if all courses had been<br />

studied by all students.<br />

Scaling modifi es the mean, the standard deviation and the maximum mark in<br />

each course. Adjustments are then made to the marks of individual students<br />

to produce scaled marks. Although scaled marks are generally different from<br />

the raw marks from which they are derived, the ranking of students within a<br />

course is not changed.<br />

Once the raw marks have been scaled, aggregates are calculated for ATAReligible<br />

students. In most cases, the order of merit based on these aggregates<br />

is quite different from the order of merit using aggregates based on HSC marks.<br />

Percentiles, which indicate the ranking of students with respect to other<br />

ATAR-eligible students, are then determined on the basis of the aggregate<br />

of scaled marks.<br />

The penultimate step is to determine what the percentiles would have been<br />

if all students in their Year 7 cohort completed Year 12 and were eligible for<br />

an ATAR. The last step is to truncate these percentiles at intervals of 0.05,<br />

commencing at 99.95. These are the ATARs.<br />

Each ATAR corresponds to a range of aggregates.<br />

The scaling process, which does not assume that one course is intrinsically<br />

more diffi cult than another or that the quality of the course candidature is<br />

always the same, is carried out afresh each year. All students who complete at<br />

least one ATAR course in a given year are included in the scaling process for<br />

that year.<br />

Further information about the HSC can be found on the NSW Board of Studies<br />

website at www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au. Further information about the<br />

ATAR can be found on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/undergraduate<br />

6.6 Frequently asked questions about the ATAR<br />

1 When is my ATAR calculated<br />

You will receive an ATAR the fi rst year you satisfy the eligibility requirements.<br />

If you complete additional courses or repeat courses you have completed,<br />

your ATAR will be recalculated. Your most recent ATAR is the one used for<br />

selection purposes.<br />

2 Are all my courses included in the calculation<br />

of the ATAR<br />

Only Board Developed courses for which there are formal examinations<br />

conducted by the Board of Studies that yield a graded assessment can be<br />

used in the calculation of your ATAR. These are called ATAR courses. If you<br />

have more than 10 units of ATAR courses, your ATAR will be calculated using<br />

your best two scaled units of English and the best eight scaled units from<br />

your remaining units. No more than two units of Category B courses can<br />

be included.<br />

3 What is the difference between acceleration and<br />

accumulation<br />

As far as the calculation of your ATAR is concerned, no distinction is made<br />

between acceleration and accumulation. You can accumulate courses over a<br />

period of up to fi ve years. This fi ve-year period is a ‘rolling period’; if you wish<br />

to go beyond the fi ve years your ATAR is based on your marks from the most<br />

recent fi ve years.<br />

Your ATAR is based on the aggregate of scaled marks in 10 units as described<br />

above, irrespective of the year in which the courses are completed within<br />

the fi ve-year span. This means that you may, subject to the approval of<br />

your school, sit courses ahead of your cohort and they will be available for<br />

inclusion in the calculation of your ATAR.<br />

4 What happens if I do not ‘satisfactorily complete’<br />

a course<br />

‘Satisfactory completion’ is described in section 6.3. If you do not satisfactorily<br />

complete a course, that course will not count towards meeting your ATAR<br />

requirements. If the course is a 2-unit course with an associated extension<br />

course in which you are enrolled, the extension course will not count either.<br />

Receiving a mark for a course on your Record of Achievement issued by<br />

the Board of Studies is an indication that you have satisfactorily completed<br />

that course.<br />

5 Can an extension course contribute to the ATAR<br />

if the corresponding 2-unit course has not been<br />

satisfactorily completed<br />

The general answer is no. For example, you must complete English Advanced<br />

to count English Extension 1 and you must complete English Extension 1 to<br />

count English Extension 2.<br />

The exception is Mathematics where you can complete Extension 1 and<br />

Extension 2 without completing the 2-unit Mathematics examination. You<br />

cannot count Mathematics Extension 2 without completing Mathematics<br />

Extension 1.<br />

6 Does an extension course have to be completed at<br />

the same time as the corresponding 2-unit course<br />

No. If you wish, you can complete the 2-unit course one year and the<br />

extension course in a later year. If you withdraw from the extension course,<br />

the marks from the 2-unit course that you have already done will be available<br />

for inclusion in the calculation of your ATAR.<br />

7 How do English Extension courses work<br />

Irrespective of whether you complete the courses in one year or over two or more<br />

years, the unit value of the courses always stays the same. English Advanced =<br />

2 units, English Extension 1 = 1 unit, and English Extension 2 = 1 unit.<br />

The two (or three) courses are available for inclusion in the calculation of the<br />

ATAR. The course/s with the highest scaled marks will be used fi rst to satisfy<br />

the best two units of English requirement.<br />

8 How do Mathematics Extension courses work<br />

You can complete formal examinations in:<br />

■ Mathematics, which has a unit value of 2<br />

■ Mathematics and Mathematics Extension 1, which have unit values of<br />

2 and 1 respectively<br />

■ Mathematics Extension 1 and Mathematics Extension 2, both of which<br />

then have a unit value of 2.<br />

If you have completed Mathematics you can add Mathematics Extension 1,<br />

which then has a unit value of 1, in a later year.<br />

If you have completed Mathematics and Mathematics Extension 1, you can<br />

add Mathematics Extension 2 in a later year. In this case Mathematics is no<br />

longer available for your ATAR and the unit value of each Extension course<br />

is then 2.<br />

If you enrol in Mathematics Extension 1 and Mathematics Extension 2,<br />

and decide to drop the Extension 2 course, you must then complete the<br />

Mathematics (2-unit) examination to have the Extension 1 mark count.<br />

The unit values are 2 for Mathematics and 1 for Mathematics Extension 1.<br />

9 Can my ATAR be recalculated<br />

There are some instances where your ATAR might be recalculated:<br />

■ if the Board of Studies provides amended HSC results to <strong>UAC</strong><br />

■ if you complete additional courses<br />

■ if you repeat courses you have already completed.<br />

If your ATAR is recalculated, you will receive a new ATAR Advice Notice.<br />

10 Which ATAR is used for selection purposes<br />

Institutions use your latest ATAR for selection purposes. This could be better<br />

or worse than a previous ATAR.<br />

11 If I’m eligible to get bonus points, does my<br />

ATAR change<br />

No. If institutions allocate bonus points they are not added to your ATAR.<br />

Bonus points change your selection rank for a particular preference or course.<br />

Your ATAR only changes if it is recalculated (see question 9 above).<br />

12 If bonus points don’t increase my ATAR, then<br />

how do they work<br />

Institutions allocate bonus points for different circumstances. Examples<br />

include performance in specifi ed HSC subjects, living in or attending school in<br />

an area defi ned by the university, and through Educational Access Schemes.<br />

For most Year 12 applicants, their selection rank for admission is their ATAR.<br />

However, if institutions allocate bonus points to you, then your selection rank<br />

for a particular preference or course = ATAR + bonus points.<br />

As the bonus points schemes for each institution, and often for each course<br />

at the same institution, are different, your selection rank can be different for<br />

each course you list in your course preferences.<br />

30 <strong>UAC</strong> 2013–14 <strong>International</strong> Booklet


ATAR<br />

13 Do the cut-offs include bonus points<br />

Yes. The cut-off for a course is the lowest selection rank (including any bonus<br />

points) required for entry into a particular course.<br />

For example, Course A has six applicants and only three places available.<br />

The six applicants have the following selection ranks:<br />

1. 99 (ATAR of 99)<br />

2. 98 (ATAR of 97 plus 1 bonus point)<br />

3. 97 (ATAR of 95 plus 2 bonus points)<br />

4. 96 (ATAR of 96)<br />

5. 95 (ATAR of 93 plus 2 bonus points)<br />

6. 94 (ATAR of 94)<br />

Offers will be made to applicants 1, 2 and 3. Applicant 4 will not receive an<br />

offer even though that applicant has a higher ATAR than applicant 3. The<br />

cut-off for Course A will be 97.<br />

14 Are schools notified of ATARs<br />

No. <strong>UAC</strong> does not release ATAR information to schools. ATARs are released only<br />

to the individual student and the institutions to which that student has applied.<br />

<strong>UAC</strong> has many resources you want to fi nd out more about the ATAR. The<br />

6.7 Repeating courses<br />

You are considered to be repeating an HSC course if you:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

repeat the same course<br />

study a different course in the same subject area, apart from an<br />

extension course.<br />

Within a fi ve-year period there are no restrictions on the number of times<br />

you can repeat a course. If you repeat a course, only the marks for the latest<br />

satisfactory attempt will be available for inclusion in the calculation of your ATAR.<br />

Repeating the same course<br />

Example:<br />

You studied Biology in 2012 and you decide to repeat Biology in 2013. Only<br />

your 2013 Biology marks will be available for inclusion in the calculation of<br />

your ATAR in 2013 even if they are lower than your 2012 Biology marks.<br />

If you enrol in a repeat course and then withdraw, either offi cially by advising<br />

your principal or the Board of Studies, or unoffi cially by non-attendance at the<br />

examination, you will be considered as not having completed the course and<br />

it will be regarded as a non-satisfactory attempt. In this case, the marks from<br />

your previous satisfactory attempt in the course will be available for inclusion<br />

in the calculation of your ATAR.<br />

You can withdraw from a repeat course at any time up to and including the<br />

HSC examination, but you should notify your principal or the Board of Studies<br />

of your withdrawal.<br />

Repeating a component of a subject that has an<br />

extension course<br />

Example:<br />

In 2012 you studied 2-unit Modern History and the History Extension course.<br />

In 2013 you could repeat:<br />

■ just the 2-unit course<br />

■ just the extension course<br />

■ both the 2-unit and the extension courses.<br />

In the fi rst case, you would keep your 2012 mark in the extension course.<br />

Your 2-unit mark from 2012 would be replaced by the 2-unit mark achieved<br />

in 2013.<br />

In the second case, you would keep your 2-unit mark. Your 2012 mark in the<br />

extension course would be replaced by your 2013 extension mark.<br />

In the third case both marks would be replaced by the marks gained in 2013.<br />

Studying a different course in the same subject area<br />

A different course in the same subject area is considered to be a repeat<br />

course and completely replaces the previous course in the calculation of<br />

the ATAR.<br />

The repeat course may have a different unit value from the previous course.<br />

For some subject areas the Board of Studies rules on repeating are complex.<br />

It is essential that you consult with your school to determine the impact of<br />

repeating a course or replacing one course with another.<br />

Example:<br />

You study a beginners language course and the following year complete<br />

the continuers language course in the same language – the mark in the<br />

continuers language course replaces the mark in the beginners course.<br />

3 Limited ATAR is not accepted for admission to 428000 Medicial Studies/<br />

Doctor of Medicine or B Arts/B Medical Studies/Doctor of Medicine or<br />

429750 B Optometry/B Science.<br />

4 Limited ATAR is used in conjunction with other criteria for selection<br />

purposes. The Limited ATAR will not be the sole criterion used for<br />

selection; each application will be considered individually.<br />

5 Limited ATAR is not accepted for admission to 780000 B Medicine.<br />

6.9 Can you receive an ATAR and a Limited ATAR<br />

Yes. If you meet the criteria to receive a Limited ATAR as outlined above, and<br />

also meet the criteria to receive an ATAR, both will be calculated and sent to you.<br />

Example:<br />

If a student aged over 20 years studied eight ATAR units (including two units<br />

of English) in the 2012 HSC, he or she would have received a Limited ATAR in<br />

2012. If the same student decides to study two additional ATAR units in the<br />

2013 HSC, he or she would be eligible for an ATAR in 2013.<br />

Under some circumstances it is possible for a student to receive an ATAR and<br />

a Limited ATAR in the same year.<br />

Each institution decides whether to use the ATAR or Limited ATAR for selection<br />

purposes. Some will use the Limited ATAR in conjunction with other criteria.<br />

6.10 The ACT ATAR<br />

Information about the calculation of the ACT ATAR is available from the ACT<br />

Board of Senior Secondary Studies. Call (02) 6205 7181 for more details.<br />

6.11 Course cut-offs<br />

The Table of courses shows the projected cut-off required by international<br />

Year 12 applicants for entry into that course. Use these ATAR cut-offs as a<br />

guide when considering your course. Remember that the cut-off indicates the<br />

lowest ATAR or equivalent accepted for entry into the course – they do not<br />

represent the average ability of the students accepted for the course.<br />

The cut-offs for entry in <strong>2014</strong> will not be known until selection is actually<br />

made during the offer rounds.<br />

Some applicants receive an offer to a course even though they have an<br />

ATAR below the published cut-off for the course. This does not mean that<br />

their ATAR has changed or increased – their ATAR stays the same, and<br />

other factors have been taken into account. For more information, read<br />

section 5.<br />

Notes for Table of NSW HSC courses in 2013<br />

1 You can study both Ancient History and Modern History, but there is only one HSC History Extension course. It is considered a course<br />

within the subject of either Modern History or Ancient History.<br />

2 You must study Music 2 if you wish to study HSC Music Extension.<br />

3 You may study either Studies of Religion I or Studies of Religion II, but not both.<br />

4 You may study only one of the following languages: Croatian, Macedonian or Serbian.<br />

5 A student can only count either Malay Background Speakers or Indonesian Background Speakers in their pattern of study.<br />

6 These are 240-hour Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses. An optional written examination is offered for the HSC. If you want<br />

the results from these courses to be available for inclusion in the calculation of your ATAR, subject to the ATAR rules (read section 6),<br />

you must undertake the optional written examination.<br />

7 Other courses are available in these VET subject areas. They are not available for inclusion in the calculation of the ATAR as there is<br />

no graded assessment in the courses. The courses range from 120-indicative-hour courses to 60- or 120-indicative-hour Extension<br />

courses. Specialist studies are also available in some subject areas. Check with your school or the Board of Studies website at<br />

www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au for further information.<br />

* HSC Mathematics Extension 1 – the unit value of this course changes depending on whether the course is taken in combination with<br />

Mathematics or HSC Mathematics Extension 2, as follows:<br />

■ Mathematics (2-unit) + HSC Mathematics Extension 1 (1-unit)<br />

■ HSC Mathematics Extension 1 (2-unit) + HSC Mathematics Extension 2 (2-unit).<br />

Comparable interstate Year 12/IB courses<br />

Some courses require that you have achieved a specifi ed standard in a NSW HSC course or comparable interstate/IB subject before an offer of a<br />

place will be made.<br />

If you do not have the required course prerequisite/s, you cannot be selected for the institution’s course even though you may have met other entry requirements.<br />

Year 12 comparison table<br />

ATAR<br />

AUSTRALIAN 2012 YEAR 12 RESULTS COMPARISON TABLE<br />

The aim of this table is to provide 2013 Year 12 applicants with information<br />

about the comparability of their results across Australia. The table relates to<br />

2012 results and must be used as a guide only.<br />

Since the late 1990s all Australian states and territories (except Queensland)<br />

have used a common measure to rank Year 12 students for university<br />

admission. The Australasian Conference of Tertiary Admission <strong>Centre</strong>s, of<br />

which <strong>UAC</strong> is a member, agreed that, as of 2010, a common name for this<br />

measure would be adopted: the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR).<br />

As the table shows, an ATAR of 81.00 in any state or territory (except<br />

Queensland) is the same as an ATAR of 81.00 from any other state or territory<br />

(except Queensland).<br />

This means that if you are completing your Year 12 studies in 2010 or later<br />

in one of these states or territories, and are planning to apply to institutions<br />

in other states or territories, your ATAR remains the same.<br />

The table below shows how state and territory ranks equated to Queensland<br />

Overall Positions in 2012. This table can be used as a guide to how 2013<br />

ATARs and Overall Positions will equate.<br />

COURSE COSTS AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE<br />

7 Course costs and financial assistance<br />

COURSE COSTS<br />

7.1 Tuition fees<br />

Each institution sets its own tuition fees for each course, so fees vary between<br />

institutions and courses. The course fees provided in the Table of courses<br />

on pages 47–110 and in the course search on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website are indicative<br />

only and subject to change. In general, course fees are based on an average<br />

course load, which may vary depending on your exact enrolment. All tuition<br />

fees are quoted in Australian dollars.<br />

Each institution has its own policy – check the institution entries in Part 2<br />

for more information.<br />

What do tuition fees cover<br />

Tuition fees generally cover teaching costs only. Tuition fees may also include:<br />

■ reception at the airport nearest to campus<br />

■ assistance in fi nding accommodation<br />

■ orientation program<br />

■ access to all available student services and facilities<br />

■ special uniforms for nursing courses.<br />

Check each institution’s entry in Part 2 for more information.<br />

Tuition fees do not include:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

costs of textbooks, course materials, study aids and equipment<br />

costs of fi eld trips<br />

living expenses such as food, accommodation, transport and clothing<br />

health cover and medical costs.<br />

7.2 Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF)<br />

New Commonwealth legislation allows Australian higher education providers<br />

to charge a fee for student services and amenities of a non-academic nature<br />

from 1 January 2013, regardless of whether students intend to use the<br />

services and amenities provided. The fee is indexed annually and may be<br />

spent on amenities and services such as sporting and recreational activities,<br />

employment and career advice, child care, fi nancial advice and food services.<br />

Not all institutions may charge international students the SSAF for <strong>2014</strong><br />

admissions.<br />

For more information on the Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF), visit<br />

the Department of Industry, Innovation, Climate Change, Science, Research<br />

and Tertiary Education’s (DIICCSRTE) website at www.innovation.gov.au/<br />

HigherEducation/StudentSupport/Pages/StudentServicesAndAmenities.aspx<br />

or check each institution’s entry in Part 2.<br />

7.3 Living expenses<br />

It is a requirement of the Australian Department of Immigration and<br />

Citizenship (DIAC) that prospective international students can demonstrate<br />

that they have access to at least A$18,610 a year to fund their living costs<br />

in Australia.<br />

You will need at least this amount to cover your living expenses. This is a<br />

rough guide only and will depend on many things, including where you live<br />

(for example, in Sydney, outer Sydney, regional NSW or in Canberra); the<br />

type of accommodation you live in; and your lifestyle. Remember, your living<br />

expenses are separate from your tuition fees.<br />

Living costs include items such as:<br />

■ accommodation<br />

■ electricity and/or gas<br />

■ entertainment<br />

■ food<br />

■ personal incidentals<br />

■ telephone and internet bills<br />

■ transport (bus/train).<br />

In addition, an establishment cost of around A$3,000 is usually needed to<br />

cover costs such as rental bonds for accommodation, furniture and telephone<br />

connection charges.<br />

Other expenses may include textbooks, study aids, vacations or the running<br />

of a car or motorbike.<br />

Check each institution’s entry in Part 2 for links to more information; some<br />

institutions include a tool to help you calculate the cost of living.<br />

You will also fi nd useful information on living costs in Australia at<br />

www.studyinaustralia.gov.au<br />

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE<br />

7.4 Scholarships<br />

Scholarships funded by the Australian Government<br />

The Australian Awards Scholarships program is funded by the Australian<br />

Government as part of Australia’s foreign aid program. The program provides<br />

opportunities for people from selected developing countries to study in<br />

Australia. These scholarships are awarded either on merit or on nomination<br />

by home governments. There are a limited number of undergraduate<br />

scholarships available.<br />

For information on how to apply for an Australia Awards Scholarship, including<br />

eligible countries, visit http://ausaid.gov.au/australia-awards/Pages/studyin.aspx<br />

Scholarships funded by institutions<br />

Institutions offer a range of scholarships designed to help international<br />

students fund the cost of their study. These scholarships may be targeted<br />

to particular areas of study or may be country-specifi c scholarships.<br />

For more information, check each institution’s entry in Part 2.<br />

7.5 Sponsored students<br />

Sponsored students are those who are accepted for a course of study at an<br />

institution and who receive full funding support for their study and/or other<br />

agreed educational expenses from sources other than from their own funding.<br />

To be recognised by an institution as a sponsored student, a student must be<br />

funded under an agreement with a sponsoring authority recognised by<br />

the institution.<br />

For more information about sponsored students and sponsoring authorities,<br />

check each institution’s entry in Part 2.<br />

8 Special requirements and policies<br />

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS AND POLICIES<br />

8.1 Student visa requirements<br />

To study in Australia as an international student, you need to apply for<br />

a student visa. To be eligible for a student visa, you need to meet the<br />

conditions set by the Australian Government’s Department of Immigration<br />

and Citizenship (DIAC). To fi nd out more about student visa requirements,<br />

visit the DIAC website at www.immi.gov.au/students/<br />

Students under 18 years of age<br />

Before you are granted a student visa, the Australian Government must be<br />

satisfi ed that you have appropriate accommodation, support and general<br />

welfare arrangements in place for the period that you will be under 18 years<br />

of age while in Australia.<br />

Each institution decides whether they will accept responsibility for welfare<br />

arrangements for international students who are under 18 years of age. The<br />

following institutions accept this responsibility:<br />

■ Australian Maritime College – visit www.international.utas.edu.au<br />

■ The Australian National University – only accepts responsibility for<br />

students who turn 18 within the fi rst six weeks of semester.<br />

Visit http://info.anu.edu.au/studyat/<strong>International</strong>_Offi ce/under-18<br />

■ <strong>International</strong> College of Management, Sydney – may if student lives<br />

on campus. Visit www.icms.edu.au<br />

■ Macquarie University – visit www.international.mq.edu.au/applications/<br />

Studentsunder18<br />

■ Southern Cross University – visit www.scu.edu.au/international/<br />

■ University of Newcastle – visit www.newcastle.edu.au/students/<br />

international/student-support/<br />

For more information on accommodation, support and general welfare<br />

arrangements and any restrictions that may apply, check the institution<br />

entries in Part 2.<br />

8.2 Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC)<br />

The Australian Government requires all international students on a student<br />

visa and their dependants to purchase an approved Overseas Student Health<br />

Cover (OSHC) policy from a registered health benefi ts organisation (usually<br />

referred to as a health fund) for the duration of their visas.<br />

Belgian and Norwegian students are not required to purchase OSHC as<br />

part of their visa requirements; they are considered to have met ‘adequate<br />

insurance’ requirements due to a reciprocal arrangement between the<br />

Australian government and the Belgian and Norwegian governments. Swedish<br />

students may also be able to avail of a similar waiver. Visit the Department<br />

of Health and Ageing’s website for more information at www.health.gov.au/<br />

internet/main/publishing.nsf/Content/Overseas+Student+Health+Cover+FAQ-1<br />

What is OSHC<br />

OSHC is insurance that provides cover on the costs for medical and hospital<br />

care that international students may need while in Australia. OSHC will also<br />

pay for most prescription drugs and emergency ambulance transport.<br />

OSHC ensures that international students have adequate health care<br />

arrangements during their stay in Australia without undue fi nancial hardship.<br />

Who provides OSHC and what does it cover<br />

The Australian Government’s Department of Health and Ageing has a<br />

website with detailed information. Visit www.health.gov.au/internet/<br />

main/publishing.nsf/Content/Overseas+Student+Health+Cover+FAQ-1<br />

and read the frequently asked questions for information on:<br />

■ who needs OSHC<br />

■ registered OSHC providers<br />

■ details of what is covered<br />

■ OSHC eligibility.<br />

OSHC does not cover dental treatment. As dental services in Australia are<br />

expensive, you should have your teeth checked and any necessary dental work<br />

completed before you leave home.<br />

When and how do I organise OSHC<br />

OSHC is compulsory and is not included in your tuition fees. If you are coming<br />

to Australia for the fi rst time on a student visa, you must pay for your OSHC<br />

before you leave home. You will be required to pay your OSHC charge at the<br />

same time that you pay your tuition-fee deposit.<br />

Your institution will help you to organise your initial OSHC membership –<br />

check each institution’s Part 2 entry for its preferred OSHC provider and<br />

payment details.<br />

Note: You can choose your own OSHC provider from the list of registered<br />

OSHC providers.<br />

8.3 Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS)<br />

Institutions that process their applications through <strong>UAC</strong> conduct their<br />

activities within the Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS)<br />

framework.<br />

The ESOS legislative framework comprises:<br />

■ Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) Act 2000<br />

■ Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) Regulations 2001<br />

■ National Code of Practice for Registration Authorities and Providers<br />

of Education and Training to Overseas Students (National Code)<br />

■ Education Services for Overseas Students (Registration Charges) Act 1997<br />

■ ESOS Assurance Fund – s.46 of ESOS Act 2000, including the ESOS<br />

(Registration Charges) Amendment (Tuition Protection Service) Act 2012,<br />

which replaces the ESOS Assurance Fund and Tuition Assurance Scheme.<br />

For more information and to download these documents, visit<br />

https://aei.gov.au/regulatory-information/pages/regulatoryinformation.aspx<br />

8.4 Working while studying<br />

As an international student, you can work in paid employment for up to 40 hours<br />

per fortnight during teaching periods, and unlimited hours when your course is<br />

not in session. You cannot undertake work until you have started your course<br />

in Australia.<br />

You should not rely on working to fund your tuition or living expenses while in<br />

Australia as work cannot be guaranteed and spending excessive amounts of<br />

8.5 Special requirements and policies for<br />

health-related and teacher education courses<br />

Special requirements and policies apply to students in both health-related and<br />

teacher education courses.<br />

These requirements relate to:<br />

■ clinical/internship placements undertaken as part of your course<br />

■ proof of English language profi ciency<br />

■ procedures for employment after you have completed the course.<br />

Note that requirements and policies in these areas are subject to regular review.<br />

Health-related courses<br />

Criminal record checks<br />

Students who need to complete clinical training in the NSW Public Health<br />

system will be subject to policies and procedures laid down for NSW Health<br />

workers by the NSW Ministry of Health, including policies around criminal<br />

record checking.<br />

NSW Health policies require that anyone working (whether paid or unpaid) in<br />

a NSW Health facility must have undergone a National Criminal Record Check<br />

and that all NSW Health workers are required to notify the employer if they<br />

are charged with or convicted of serious offences. These are two of a number<br />

of controls to minimise the risk of harm to vulnerable clients and to create a<br />

secure work environment for all NSW Health workers.<br />

All students are required to obtain a National Criminal Police Certifi cate from a<br />

state or territory police service or through the Australian Federal Police before<br />

they commence clinical placements in NSW Health facilities; this certifi cate is<br />

valid for three years.<br />

Overseas students, in addition to obtaining an Australian National Police<br />

Certifi cate, must obtain a police certifi cate (with English translation) from<br />

their home country and any country they have resided in. If unable to obtain<br />

a police certifi cate, the student must complete a statutory declaration stating<br />

they have no pending, current or previous criminal charges or convictions in<br />

those countries or listing any criminal records. (Overseas police certifi cates<br />

and statutory declarations relating to overseas history are valid for the<br />

duration of the course.)<br />

If a student’s National Police Certifi cate (or overseas police certifi cate/<br />

statutory declaration for overseas students) shows a criminal record, the<br />

student must apply for a clinical placement clearance from the NSW Health<br />

Employment Screening and Review Unit. Students with criminal history should<br />

allow time for this application process.<br />

<strong>UAC</strong> 2013–14 <strong>International</strong> Booklet 37


SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS AND POLICIES<br />

When requested, and before any placements can commence, students must<br />

present to NSW Health their original National Police Certifi cates (and where<br />

relevant overseas police certifi cates or statutory declarations) if they show no<br />

criminal history, or a NSW Health issued clinical placement clearance if they<br />

have criminal history. Failure to provide these documents when requested<br />

may delay the commencement of placements.<br />

Students wishing to attend clinical placements in NSW Health facilities are<br />

required to agree to abide by the NSW Health Code of Conduct and must<br />

also sign a Student Undertaking that they will advise NSW Health if they are<br />

charged or convicted of any offence while completing their course after the<br />

issue of their National Police Certifi cate.<br />

Students attending clinical placements in hospitals or other health services<br />

are exempt from the Working with Children Check. Visit www.kids.nsw.gov.au<br />

for further information on the Working with Children Check.<br />

Further information about NSW Health’s requirements for students to obtain<br />

criminal record checks is on NSW Health’s website at www.health.nsw.gov.au/<br />

careers/student_clearance/pages/default.aspx<br />

Infectious diseases<br />

Students who need to complete clinical training in the NSW hospital system<br />

will be subject to NSW Health requirements for health workers to demonstrate<br />

protection against specifi ed vaccine-preventable diseases.<br />

In the hospital system students are exposed to a large number and variety<br />

of individuals, and this may place them at risk of contracting one of these<br />

diseases.<br />

If you have a communicable disease you may place your patients at risk.<br />

Therefore, you are required to be protected against a range of vaccine<br />

preventable infectious diseases and may be screened for tuberculosis.<br />

Information about specifi ed infectious diseases and the requirements of<br />

the NSW Health policy is available at www.health.nsw.gov.au/publichealth/<br />

immunisation/ohs<br />

If you do not have the required documentary evidence of protection against<br />

the specified diseases, you will not be permitted to attend your clinical<br />

placement in the NSW health system and progress in your course will be<br />

affected.<br />

Some healthcare workers (nurses, doctors, dentists, dental technicians,<br />

podiatrists and physiotherapists) also have regulated individual responsibility<br />

with regard to infection control. You need to familiarise yourself with these<br />

responsibilities.<br />

Healthcare workers who are HIV antibody positive, hepatitis B e-antigen<br />

positive, hepatitis B DNA positive or hepatitis C PCR positive must not perform<br />

exposure-prone procedures. Infected people should seek expert medical<br />

advice on their infectious status and the extent to which this may limit their<br />

clinical practice.<br />

Further information about exposure-prone procedures and the requirements<br />

of the NSW Health policy is available at www.health.nsw.gov.au/policies/<br />

pd/2005/pd2005_162.html<br />

Nursing and midwifery courses: English language<br />

proficiency<br />

You may have to provide proof of profi ciency in English at one or two points in<br />

your path to becoming a nurse or midwife in Australia:<br />

1 when you apply for admission to your course<br />

2 when you apply for registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of<br />

Australia for the fi rst time.<br />

The tests/qualifi cations and results that are accepted at these two points are<br />

different. You must therefore read the requirements carefully.<br />

1 When you apply through <strong>UAC</strong> for admission to the course<br />

If you have undertaken your studies in an overseas country, you may have to<br />

provide proof of profi ciency in English.<br />

You need to know that:<br />

■ institutions determine their own English language profi ciency requirements<br />

■ you can fi nd information about tests and qualifi cations that institutions<br />

accept as proof of English language profi ciency – read page 28 and visit<br />

<strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/international/faq/elp.shtml<br />

■ most institutions have many ways for you to provide proof of English<br />

language profi ciency.<br />

2 When you apply for registration as a nurse or midwife<br />

Since 1 July 2010 (18 October in Western Australia), health professionals<br />

applying for the fi rst time in Australia for registration as a nurse or midwife<br />

are required to demonstrate English language profi ciency as specifi ed by the<br />

Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (National Board or NMBA).<br />

The National Board’s English language skills registration standard is due for<br />

review in September <strong>2014</strong>. However, the National Board is participating in<br />

an all National Boards review of common, or largely common, registration<br />

standards, including the English language skills registration standard and the<br />

criminal history registration standard.<br />

You need to know that:<br />

■ the National Board determines acceptable English language tests and<br />

results<br />

■ you can fi nd a copy of the National Board-approved English language skills<br />

registration standard at www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/Registration-<br />

Standards.aspx<br />

■ the National Board has three ways for you to provide proof of English<br />

language profi ciency<br />

■ you can fi nd useful codes and guidelines, position statements, FAQ and<br />

fact sheets under Codes, Guidelines and Statements on the National<br />

Board website at www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/Codes-Guidelines-<br />

Statements.aspx<br />

Teacher education courses<br />

Background checking processes<br />

The NSW Government is committed to providing a safe and caring<br />

environment for children. Under the Commission for Children and Young<br />

People Act 1998, employers must implement what is referred to as the<br />

Working with Children Check. This Act also establishes employment screening<br />

requirements for child-related employment in NSW. The Department of<br />

Education and Communities also requires applicants for teaching positions<br />

to undergo a probity check to help to ensure that only people of the highest<br />

calibre are recruited to work in NSW Government schools.<br />

All teacher education students must complete a Declaration form when<br />

undertaking practical training as part of an educational or vocational course<br />

in NSW Government schools. By signing the declaration, a student is declaring<br />

that they have not been convicted of any prohibited or registrable offence<br />

that would preclude them from working in child-related employment in NSW,<br />

and consenting the Commission for Children and Young People to check their<br />

relevant criminal records to verify their statement. Prohibited persons will<br />

not be able to undertake practical course requirements in NSW schools. It is<br />

an offence for a prohibited person to apply for, attempt to obtain, undertake<br />

or remain in child-related employment. It is also an offence to make a false<br />

declaration.<br />

Teacher education students seeking to undertake an internship or associate<br />

teacher program must complete an Applicant declaration and consent<br />

form and be screened before they begin their internship in schools. The<br />

employment screening process involves a National Criminal History Check,<br />

a Working with Children Check for relevant criminal records, relevant<br />

apprehended violence orders, relevant employment proceedings and a risk<br />

estimate where a relevant record is found.<br />

Employment screening is also conducted for those seeking to work in paid<br />

child-related employment in the Department.<br />

Note: The Child Protection (Working with Children) Act 2012 introduces a<br />

new process for obtaining a Working with Children Check Clearance where<br />

a worker applies for a clearance from the Commission for Children and<br />

Young People and the Department is responsible for verifying the currency<br />

of clearances. This process is scheduled to commence in 2013 following<br />

fi nalisation of the Child Protection (Working with Children) Regulation and may<br />

be in place by the time of publication of this <strong>booklet</strong>. Visit www.kids.nsw.gov.au<br />

for information on the new process.<br />

Learning: A Blueprint for Action’, a plan to improve teaching in NSW. As part<br />

of this plan, NSW HSC students entering teaching degrees will be required<br />

to have Band 5 results in three or more subjects (one of which must be<br />

English). In addition, pre-service teachers must pass a mandatory literacy<br />

and numeracy assessment before accepting their fi nal-year teaching<br />

placement.<br />

visit www.schools.nsw.edu.au/news/greatteaching/index.php<br />

Australian Government<br />

As part of its ‘Better Schools: A National Plan for School Improvement’,<br />

in March 2013 the Australian Government announced its proposal for a<br />

national approach to admission into teaching courses. Under the plan,<br />

admission will be based on both academic achievement and the personal<br />

qualities needed for teaching. It is proposed that selection into teaching<br />

courses could include:<br />

■ an interview to ensure that an applicant has the necessary emotional<br />

intelligence, resilience and commitment to teaching<br />

■ a portfolio of activities (such as sport coaching or community<br />

involvement) to demonstrate the applicant’s values and aptitude<br />

■ a written statement explaining why the applicant wants to be a teacher.<br />

In addition, teaching students will be required to pass a national literacy<br />

and numeracy assessment before they can graduate.<br />

Diploma<br />

An undergraduate award usually placing more emphasis on practical skills<br />

than on theoretical content. Also, a postgraduate award requiring one year<br />

of full-time, or equivalent part-time, postgraduate study.<br />

Distance education<br />

A form of full-time or part-time study that takes place outside the institution,<br />

either at a study centre online or at home by correspondence. Periodic<br />

residential attendance at on-campus sessions is usually required.<br />

Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) Act<br />

DEEWR regulates the education and training sector and its involvement with<br />

overseas students studying in Australia on student visas. It does this through<br />

the ESOS Act and associated legislation which protects the interests of these<br />

students by providing tuition and fi nancial assurance. The legislation makes sure<br />

that there is a nationally consistent approach to registering education providers<br />

so that the quality of the tuition and services offered to students remains high.<br />

Enrolment<br />

After you have been offered and have accepted a place in a course you will need<br />

to enrol at a certain time. Each institution has its own enrolment procedures and<br />

in many institutions special advice is available about courses and enrolment<br />

plans. Successful applicants will receive enrolment details with their offer.<br />

COMMON TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS<br />

Exclusion<br />

A decision by an institution to exclude you from continuing your study at that<br />

institution. The reason for exclusion is usually because you have breached a<br />

regulation, such as failure in your program of study. In most cases you may<br />

re-apply for admission to the course/institution after a set period of time<br />

from the date of exclusion, usually one or two years.<br />

External study (see Distance education)<br />

Fee-paying students<br />

Students who meet the entire amount of their study costs. These students pay<br />

tuition fees. These can be domestic or international students.<br />

Graduand<br />

A person who has satisfi ed the academic requirements for a degree/Diploma<br />

but who has not yet received it at a graduation ceremony.<br />

Graduate<br />

A person who has received a degree/Diploma.<br />

Honours<br />

Institutions adopt one of two approaches to honours. In a three-year<br />

undergraduate course or part-time equivalent, honours is available as<br />

an additional year of full-time study or part-time equivalent to meritorious<br />

students. In a four- or fi ve-year course, honours is awarded on the basis<br />

of superior performance in the course.<br />

Internal<br />

The form of full-time or part-time study that takes place on the university<br />

campus. Some institutions use this term to differentiate this type of study.<br />

<strong>International</strong> students<br />

Students who are NOT Australian or New Zealand citizens (including dual<br />

citizens) or permanent residents of Australia and who meet the entire cost of<br />

their studies through tuition fees.<br />

Major studies (see also Minor studies)<br />

Areas of in-depth study or specialisation within a course consisting of a<br />

sequence of subjects/units in a single discipline generally studied throughout<br />

the course. Major studies comprise more subjects/units than minor studies.<br />

In some courses you can take more than one major. Some institutions may<br />

refer to major studies as majors or specialisations.<br />

Minor studies (see also Major studies)<br />

Areas of study within a course consisting of a sequence of subjects/units in<br />

a single discipline. Minor studies comprise fewer subjects/units than major<br />

studies. Some institutions may refer to minor studies as sub-majors, or<br />

additional or supporting subjects/units.<br />

Moderation<br />

To remove differences between how schools assess their students, the<br />

Board of Studies compares school-based assessment marks with state-wide<br />

examination marks and aligns them to course standards to produce an<br />

assessment mark for each student.<br />

NSW<br />

New South Wales.<br />

Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC)<br />

OSHC is insurance that provides cover for the costs of medical and hospital<br />

care, which international students may need while they are in Australia. The<br />

Australian Government requires all international students on a student visa<br />

to purchase an approved OSHC policy.<br />

Part-time study<br />

A method of completing a course offered to students who are unable to<br />

undertake full-time study.<br />

At some institutions, evening classes are available for part-time students.<br />

At others, part-time students attend the same daytime classes as full-time<br />

students but undertake fewer units of study than full-time students. Part-time<br />

students usually spread courses over a longer time than full-time students.<br />

Pathway courses<br />

Pathway courses are a lower level of study than a Bachelor degree. Some<br />

institutions offer pathway courses through <strong>UAC</strong> – read the institution entries<br />

in Part 2 for details.<br />

Percentile<br />

The percentile indicates a student’s position in a course against other<br />

students. For example, a student in the 73rd percentile has done better than<br />

73 per cent of the students in that course.<br />

Postgraduate courses<br />

These are courses usually available only to people who have qualifi ed for an<br />

appropriate fi rst degree/Diploma. They are not available to school leavers.<br />

They include:<br />

■<br />

■<br />

■<br />

graduate/postgraduate Certifi cate<br />

graduate/postgraduate Diploma<br />

postgraduate degree, Masters or Doctorate.<br />

Practical/Industrial experience<br />

Supervised practice takes place in an approved work place and helps you<br />

develop skills relevant to your study. It may be undertaken during a semester<br />

or in-semester breaks and can vary from regular one-day placements to<br />

block periods of several weeks. Costs may be involved, such as instruments,<br />

uniform, accommodation or travel. Check with the relevant institution.<br />

Prerequisites (see also Assumed knowledge)<br />

An essential prescribed level of achievement that must be reached in a<br />

specifi ed course/s in the NSW HSC or equivalent before an applicant is<br />

considered for selection. An institution may specify course prerequisites,<br />

subject prerequisites or no prerequisites. If prerequisites are not required,<br />

a level of assumed knowledge is usually specifi ed.<br />

Course prerequisites<br />

Some courses require you to have achieved a specifi ed standard in a NSW<br />

HSC course or equivalent before you will be offered a place in the course.<br />

If you do not have the required course prerequisite/s you cannot be selected<br />

for the institution’s course even though you may have met the admission<br />

requirements.<br />

Subject prerequisites<br />

Some particular subjects within a tertiary course require you to have achieved a<br />

specifi ed standard in a NSW HSC or equivalent course/s before you are allowed<br />

to enrol in those particular subjects. If you do not have the required subject<br />

prerequisite/s, but have met the admission requirements, you may still be selected<br />

for the course but be unable to take the particular subject within the course.<br />

Some institutions offer bridging or introductory courses that enable people<br />

who do not meet subject prerequisites to achieve the required HSC standard.<br />

If you include one or more bridging courses in your program, however, you may<br />

fi nd that you cannot complete your tertiary course in the minimum time.<br />

Professional recognition<br />

The course has been approved by a professional body or bodies, which enables<br />

graduates to apply for membership and/or registration to practise in the profession.<br />

Recommended studies<br />

These are NSW HSC or equivalent courses that the institutions suggest will<br />

assist you in your chosen university course. If you have not studied these<br />

courses your chances of selection are not affected.<br />

Record of failure<br />

Institutions generally consider you to have a record of failure if you receive<br />

a fail for one or more subjects on your academic record. The record of failure<br />

may be because:<br />

■ you have withdrawn from a course or a single unit where that<br />

withdrawal is counted as a failure<br />

■ you have failed to satisfy the assessment requirements for one<br />

or more units.<br />

Scaling<br />

The fi rst step in calculating the ATAR. It enables the many different courses<br />

taken by students to be compared fairly.<br />

Semester<br />

The academic year is usually divided into fi rst and second semesters.<br />

Students can start courses at the beginning of the fi rst and, in some cases,<br />

second semester. Some institutions call them autumn and spring semesters.<br />

Others use session or half-year. Some institutions have trimesters, with an<br />

additional study period over summer.<br />

Slipback offer<br />

A slipback offer is an offer to a lower level of study than you have applied for.<br />

For example, you apply for a Bachelor degree and the institution decides that,<br />

while you are not eligible and competitive enough for entry to the Bachelor<br />

degree, you are eligible for a lower level of study (such as a Diploma). The<br />

institution makes you an offer to the lower level course.<br />

Special requirements<br />

TABLE OF COURSES<br />

COURSES AVAILABLE TO INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS<br />

Courses available to international applicants are known as international<br />

fee-paying (IFEE) courses. IFEE courses available for 2013-14 admissions<br />

are listed in this table.<br />

IFEE courses are only available on a full-time, full-fee basis.<br />

Each institution sets its own tuition fees for each course, so fees vary<br />

between institutions and courses. This table shows the approximate annual<br />

tuition fee for each IFEE course. Course fees are subject to change. In general,<br />

course fees are based on an average course load, which may vary depending<br />

on your exact enrolment. Each institution has its own policy – read the<br />

footnotes in this table. For more information about course fees, contact<br />

the relevant institution.<br />

Start date<br />

This table shows the date when each IFEE course starts. If there is more than<br />

one start date for a course, you will need to select your preferred start date<br />

when you apply.<br />

CUT-OFFS<br />

The cut-offs in this table can be either:<br />

■ the cut-off required for selection in 2013, or<br />

■ the projected cut-off that may be required for selection in <strong>2014</strong>.<br />

Check each institution’s headings in the table to see which cut-off has<br />

been used.<br />

The cut-offs are supplied as a general guide to help you assess your chances of<br />

obtaining a place in a particular course. Actual cut-offs for entry in <strong>2014</strong> will<br />

not be known until selections are made during the offer runs.<br />

Offers to applicants who have an ATAR below the cut-off<br />

The cut-off for a course indicates the minimum ATAR required for selection<br />

into the course for the majority of Australian 2013 Year 12 applicants.<br />

However, for a limited number of applicants, institutions have alternative<br />

admission schemes, which may allow applicants to receive an offer to a<br />

course even though they have an ATAR below the cut-off for the course.<br />

The schemes offered by the institutions differ.<br />

Read section 5 and check each institution’s entry in Part 2 for more<br />

information about the schemes and pathways offered.<br />

ORDER OF COURSES<br />

Courses are listed in alphabetical order except for those offered by the<br />

University of New South Wales, the University of Sydney and the University<br />

of Technology, Sydney, which are listed in course code order.<br />

COURSE DESCRIPTIONS<br />

Detailed descriptions of each IFEE course are not included in this <strong>booklet</strong>.<br />

Course descriptions listing additional selection criteria, major studies, career<br />

opportunities, prerequisites, assumed knowledge, recommended studies<br />

and any additional information about the course are available on <strong>UAC</strong>’s<br />

website at www.uac.edu.au/international/course-search/<br />

KEY TO SYMBOLS<br />

There is a key to the abbreviations and symbols used in the table at the<br />

bottom of each page. Following is a detailed description of the symbols.<br />

Course prerequisites<br />

Some tertiary courses require you to have achieved a specifi ed standard in<br />

a NSW HSC course or equivalent before you will be offered a place in the<br />

course. If you do not meet the required course prerequisite/s you cannot be<br />

selected for the course even though you may have met the other admission<br />

requirements.<br />

Not all institutions have course prerequisites. Of those that do, some state<br />

the minimum level you must achieve in your HSC course. For example, if an<br />

institution states Mathematics (Band 3) is required, this means that you<br />

must achieve a result in Band 3 or higher in Mathematics to meet the course<br />

prerequisite. If you achieve less than Band 3 you do not meet the course<br />

prerequisite and, even if you have the ATAR for entry to the course, you will not<br />

receive an offer.<br />

Other institutions do not specify bands; instead, they just specify the HSC<br />

course name. This means that you must attempt the course, but you do not<br />

have to achieve a specifi c result.<br />

Subject prerequisites<br />

Some subjects in a tertiary course require you to achieve a specifi ed<br />

standard in a NSW HSC or equivalent course before you are able to enrol in<br />

those particular subjects.<br />

If you do not meet the required subject prerequisite/s, but you have met the<br />

admission requirements, you may be selected for the course but be unable<br />

to take the particular subject within the course.<br />

Some institutions require you to achieve a specifi c level in your HSC course.<br />

For example, if an institution states Mathematics (Band 3) is required, this<br />

means that you must achieve a result in Band 3 or higher in Mathematics to<br />

meet the subject prerequisite. Other institutions do not specify bands; instead,<br />

they just specify the HSC course name. This means that you must attempt the<br />

course, but you do not have to achieve a specifi c result.<br />

Some institutions offer bridging or introductory courses, which provide those<br />

people who do not meet subject prerequisites with an opportunity to achieve<br />

the required standard – contact the relevant institution for details.<br />

Assumed knowledge<br />

Some institutions assume you have a knowledge of specifi c NSW HSC courses<br />

or equivalent before beginning your course. If you do not have the assumed<br />

level of knowledge but have met the admission requirements, you may still be<br />

selected for the course. You may, however, have some diffi culty coping with<br />

your studies.<br />

Some institutions offer bridging or introductory courses, enabling those<br />

people who do not have the assumed level of knowledge to achieve the<br />

required HSC standard. Contact the relevant institution for details.<br />

Additional selection criteria<br />

These are compulsory requirements – either in addition to, or instead of,<br />

admission requirements – which you must satisfy to be considered for selection<br />

into the course. They include interviews, auditions, portfolios, supporting<br />

statements, questionnaires and tests.<br />

Courses with additional selection criteria usually have early closing dates<br />

– check the course descriptions on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at www.uac.edu.au/<br />

international/course-search/ for details.<br />

Recommended studies<br />

These are NSW HSC or equivalent courses which the institutions suggest<br />

will help you in your chosen tertiary course. If you have not studied these<br />

courses your chances of selection are not affected. This symbol is not used in<br />

this table. It is used only in the course descriptions on <strong>UAC</strong>’s website at<br />

www.uac.edu.au/international/ course-search/<br />

+ The annual tuition fees stated in this table are published for guidance only and are based on the normal annual (two semester) full-time enrolment of courses entirely in the discipline area of the degree, ie only science courses for a<br />

BSc or only arts courses for a BA. If you take more than a normal load in a year, you will pay more than the indicative annual fee; if you take less than the normal load, you will pay less. You also may pay more or less if you take courses<br />

from another discipline area as part of your degree. The <strong>2014</strong> indicative fees listed above are rounded to the nearest $5. Tuition fees do not include the Overseas Student Health Cover premium.<br />

* This is the projected minimum cut-off that will be required for entry into these courses, actual cut-off could be higher depending on the double degree combination chosen.<br />

+ Tuition fees are calculated on a student’s exact enrolment. UNSW students enrolled in most courses have some flexibility in the subjects they choose. At times these subjects will be from outside their own faculty.<br />

For example, a commerce student may choose elective subjects from a range of other faculties; a student in a combined law degree with engineering or science will choose subjects from science and engineering<br />

and subjects from law. These choices may result in a higher or lower total fee for the year.<br />

# B Laws in combination with aerospace, chemical, civil, computer, electrical, environmental, industrial chemistry, manufacturing and management, mechanical, mechatronics, mining, naval architecture, petroleum,<br />

photonics, photovoltaics and solar energy, renewable energy, surveying or spatial information systems or telecommunications.<br />

+ The annual tuition fees listed are indicative fees for students commencing in the <strong>2014</strong> academic year only. Fees are based on a full-time student enrolment load of 24 credit points per semester (or 48 credit points<br />

per year). The exact fee will depend on the specific units of study in which you enrol and will be invoiced to students based on their enrolment in actual units of study for each semester. For students enrolling in a<br />

APM College of Business<br />

and Communication<br />

Miller Street Campus<br />

Level 4, 213 Miller Street<br />

North Sydney NSW<br />

APM College of Business and Communication began in 1987 and is<br />

accredited as both a higher education provider and a vocational education<br />

provider. It was originally established by business professionals who sought<br />

graduates with relevant practical skills alongside a strong theoretical<br />

knowledge-base.<br />

Today, APM College of Business and Communication is part of the Think:<br />

Education Group – one of Australia’s leading innovative education and<br />

training groups. The courses offered by the College have evolved from the<br />

traditional marketing programs to include such specialist areas as event<br />

management, public relations, marketing and management.<br />

A leader in private education<br />

Think: Education Group provides over 95 industry-leading qualifi cations<br />

to more than 9,500 students across campuses in NSW, Victoria and<br />

Queensland. Approximately half of our students are Australian with our<br />

international students coming from over 40 countries. This diverse student<br />

population creates a truly unique learning experience for our students.<br />

Think: Education Group includes some of Australia’s iconic education brands<br />

including William Blue College of Hospitality Management, CATC Design<br />

School, Billy Blue College of Design, Southern School of Natural Therapies,<br />

Australasian College of Natural Therapies, Australian National College of<br />

Beauty and Jansen Newman Institute.<br />

Think: Education Group was awarded the Higher Education Provider of<br />

the Year at the 2012 ACPET Awards for Excellence.<br />

Small classes<br />

Our average class sizes are small, which means you will get the individual<br />

attention and support you need to learn and thrive. Our classes foster an<br />

environment of encouragement, contribution and respect giving APM students<br />

the skills to tackle professional life during or after study.<br />

Flexible delivery<br />

APM has two campuses; in North Sydney and Fortitude Valley, Brisbane.<br />

All APM courses are also provided online. Students are welcome to choose<br />

a blended style of learning, meaning they are able to elect to study some<br />

subjects online and some subjects in on-campus mode.<br />

APM College of Business and Communication provides a dynamic,<br />

professional and cutting-edge learning environment. APM’s lecturers bring<br />

a wealth of industry experience to their classrooms, which illuminates theories<br />

and helps students to learn through practical application.<br />

The College offers both vocational Diplomas and higher education Bachelor<br />

degrees that are designed to give students high-quality learning and realworld<br />

experience leading them to full-time work or further study. Every student<br />

enrolled in a Bachelor degree will undergo a 200-hour industry placement<br />

that provides students with a valuable link to industry and practical<br />

work experience. Most of the courses at APM College of Business and<br />

Communication can be studied through our Flexible Online Learning system,<br />

meaning that students have the opportunity to build a study program that<br />

suits their lifestyle. They can choose to study on campus or online, or a blend<br />

of both, making it possible to get their career started while studying.<br />

Industry Placement Program<br />

When you do an APM Business Degree, you will complete an Industry<br />

Placement Program with one of our industry partners where you gain<br />

experience in your chosen profession and get solid insights into modern<br />

work-force performance and expectations.<br />

Every student is consulted to determine a placement provider that matches<br />

their needs closely. Many APM graduates are able to secure jobs with<br />

organisations they’ve worked with as part of this program, or through<br />

connections they make along the way.<br />

Think:CLASS Student Support<br />

All students are encouraged to lean on the Think:CLASS (<strong>Centre</strong> for Learning<br />

and Academic Skills Support) while studying at APM. Think: CLASS staff can<br />

help you to study more effectively and develop your skills in writing (essays<br />

and reports), study techniques, goal setting, grammar and spelling, time<br />

organisation, creating an effective study environment, academic learning<br />

and exam preparation.<br />

Our experienced team ensures that academic issues are dealt with and<br />

that students are supported in their learning. The team includes access to<br />

a counsellor who can offer confi dential assistance to students experiencing<br />

personal and welfare issues.<br />

of Maritime <strong>Universities</strong> (IAMU) and is a specialist institute of the University<br />

of Tasmania.<br />

facilities, AMC prides itself on having strong links with industry and high<br />

graduate employment rates. With a focus on hands-on learning and fl exible<br />

course delivery, AMC attracts students from around the world studying at all<br />

levels; from vocational training through to postgraduate degrees.<br />

Whether you want to captain a large vessel, safeguard the world’s marine<br />

environments or design super structures on the ocean, there‘s a wide range<br />

of study areas to choose from, including:<br />

■ maritime engineering (marine and offshore engineering, ocean<br />

engineering and naval architecture)<br />

■ marine environment (aquaculture, fi sheries management, marine<br />

mix of vibrant culture, contemporary arts, striking architecture, stunning<br />

scenery, a Mediterranean climate and an enviable lifestyle.<br />

Just a quick direct fl ight from Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane, Launceston is<br />

a city that is large enough to offer a city experience but small enough to retain<br />

Billy Blue College of Design<br />

Northpoint<br />

North Sydney NSW<br />

Billy Blue College of Design began in North Sydney as Billy Blue Creative<br />

in 1977, a magazine publishing colloquial Australian writing. In 1987, Billy<br />

Blue Creative decided to open a tiny design school to train people who would<br />

eventually work in the studio. A crowd of about four was expected. Sixty-six<br />

people enrolled and there was a long waiting list.<br />

In essence, the school was created by industry for industry and has been<br />

building on that concept ever since. All of the teachers at Billy Blue are<br />

industry professionals – promoting professional teaching rather than teaching<br />

professionals – and the students benefi t. It’s a unique, fun, interactive and<br />

entrepreneurial relationship.<br />

Industry permeates everything the college does. Billy Blue’s positive<br />

partnership with the design industry is the key to the College’s reputation and<br />

success. The College is constantly consulting and engaging with experts from<br />

across the creative industries to ensure that students are learning the most<br />

valuable, current and discipline-relevant skills.<br />

To make sure that all students are connected to the industry, they have<br />

access to the BB HATCH program, a unique Billy Blue direct internship<br />

initiative, as well as full interaction with BB Studio, our Industry & Strategic<br />

Projects hub, which links students and graduates with exciting creative<br />

industries opportunities. Your partnership and immersion with the Billy Blue<br />

community starts from day one.<br />

The College offers Bachelor degrees in Communication Design, Digital Media<br />

Design, Commercial Interiors, Residential Interiors, and Branded Fashion. The<br />

College also offers various short courses, as well as a Certifi cate III in Design<br />

Fundamentals and is linked with sister college CATC Design School.<br />

Located in the bustling North Sydney CBD (with campuses in Melbourne and<br />

Brisbane), students are close to public transport, shops and local attractions.<br />

Charles Sturt University (CSU) is a progressive and award-winning university that<br />

has rapidly gained an international reputation for excellence through its<br />

innovative approach to higher education. CSU is Australia’s largest<br />

non-metropolitan university and is recognised as a leader in the provision<br />

of distance education. The University transcends national and international<br />

borders to offer nearly 400 courses to more than 38,000 students throughout<br />

CSU offers a wide choice of study locations. With a network of campuses<br />

country and around the globe.<br />

CSU regional campuses offer a unique study experience – access to the<br />

best of city living along with the benefi ts of a regional lifestyle. Expansive<br />

standard foundation program meets the requirements for CRICOS-registered<br />

foundation programs providing academic preparation in Australia to overseas<br />

students seeking entry to fi rst year undergraduate study or its equivalent.<br />

Melbourne Institute of Technology - MIT Sydney offers a range of programs in<br />

Business, Accounting, Marketing, Management, Information Technology and<br />

Computer Networking at undergraduate (University pathway Diplomas and<br />

Bachelor degrees) and postgraduate level.<br />

MIT takes pride in our growing reputation as a higher education provider<br />

emphasising teaching quality and a good student experience. It provides an<br />

innovative curriculum which covers both theoretical and practical knowledge,<br />

helping you develop a successful career in your chosen fi eld.<br />

Students benefi t from smaller class sizes and guidance from highly qualifi ed<br />

teaching staff. Small tutorial groups make individual attention possible, with<br />

a focus on an understanding of both practical and theoretical knowledge.<br />

Tutorial and assignment work involves applying industry relevant applications<br />

and case studies, which in turn require the development of critical<br />

employability skills such as communication and analysis, cultural awareness<br />

and a commitment to ethical standards. These skills are most relevant in the<br />

global context and contribute to you becoming a graduate who is work ready<br />

and able to immediately add value to employers in any location world wide.<br />

Our courses are accredited by professional bodies such as the CPA Australia,<br />

the Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAA) and the Australian Computer<br />

Society (ACS).<br />

MIT has three trimesters in one academic year – each trimester being the<br />

equivalent of one traditional semester. Undertaking three trimesters in a year<br />

allows you to complete a three-year degree in just two years, which means you<br />

will be working while other people are still studying. The trimester system also<br />

allows you to spread a traditional two-semester year over three trimesters<br />

– doing fewer units in each trimester in order to manage your work and<br />

personal commitments. Another option is to use the November trimester to<br />

catch up on units you weren’t able to complete in previous trimesters.<br />

OPEN DAYS, EXHIBITIONS AND INTERVIEW SESSIONS<br />

University of New England<br />

Armidale NSW<br />

The University of New England (UNE) offers you an education that’s truly world<br />

class. State-of-the-art teaching and research facilities, sporting amenities and<br />

vibrant residences mean that you have everything you need for successful<br />

study. UNE was the fi rst Australian university established outside a capital city.<br />

With a history extending back to the 1930s, it has a well-earned reputation as<br />

one of Australia’s great teaching, training and research universities.<br />

While UNE has a long history and strong tradition, our outlook is dynamic<br />

and fresh. Our focus is on the future, ensuring that your education and<br />

qualifi cations are relevant. UNE’s vibrant living and learning lifestyle is one of<br />

the reasons UNE consistently receives the maximum fi ve-star rating for overall<br />

graduate satisfaction in The Good <strong>Universities</strong> Guide. More than 75,000<br />

people hold UNE qualifi cations; many hold senior positions in Australia and<br />

overseas.<br />

Studying on campus means you will be immersed in a vibrant living and<br />

learning environment – a community where you will make lifelong friendships.<br />

We have smaller class sizes, an open door philosophy and the kind of campus<br />

where you’ll want to spend time. UNE has highly qualifi ed teachers who come<br />

from all corners of the globe.<br />

Armidale is an inspiring centre in which to study. It lies in the heart of the<br />

beautiful New England region, located halfway between Sydney and Brisbane<br />

on the New England Highway and just a two-hour drive from the NSW north<br />

coast. The majority of fi rst-year students choose to live on campus, enjoying<br />

a network of friends, social events and academic support. We have an<br />

extensive, traditional residential college system and boast sporting and<br />

cultural facilities that are the envy of our city counterparts. In the surrounding<br />

city of Armidale, you will fi nd all the city comforts such as clubs and pubs,<br />

restaurants, live bands, fast food, theatre, cinema, shopping and sporting<br />

events. Living and studying in Armidale means a lower cost of living compared<br />

to metropolitan universities.<br />

OPEN DAYS, EXHIBITIONS AND INTERVIEW SESSIONS<br />

In Australia<br />

Our Open Day is on Friday 2 May <strong>2014</strong> – an ideal opportunity to see the<br />

PREPARING FOR STUDENT LIFE<br />

In order to study in Australia, you must hold a valid student visa. If you come to<br />

Australia on a tourist visa and subsequently enrol at the University of Newcastle,<br />

you must convert your tourist visa to a student visa immediately. The University<br />

of Newcastle cannot make representations to the Department of Immigration<br />

and Citizenship (DIAC) with respect to visas of overseas students.<br />

If you are offered admission, it is to a full-fee program for students wishing<br />

to undertake studies at an Australian educational institution. It is not a<br />

scholarship, employment or immigration program.<br />

As an international student, you must enrol in your program full-time. If you enrol in<br />

less than the required full-time load, you will be considered by DIAC to be in breach<br />

of your student visa conditions. As an international student you must fund your<br />

entire studies independently and leave Australia when your studies are complete<br />

and/or when your student visa expires, or when you cease to be eligible for a<br />

student visa. Visit www.immi.gov.au for further information.<br />

The University of Western Sydney (UWS) is a research-led university serving<br />

a growing and diverse urban region with a student population in excess of<br />

40,000. As a major urban university, UWS campuses extend throughout<br />

the Greater Western Sydney region – Bankstown, Nirimba (Blacktown),<br />

Campbelltown, Hawkesbury, Lithgow, Parramatta, Penrith and Westmead.<br />

While each campus offers a unique learning environment, they all share the<br />

same friendly communal atmosphere that makes UWS a great place to study,<br />

make friends and succeed in your chosen fi eld.<br />

UWS has an industry-oriented approach, combining academic learning with<br />

practical hands-on experience and learning opportunities. Students can<br />

access state-of-the-art facilities including the Biomedical Magnetic Resonance<br />

Facility, Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometer, Confocal Bio-Imaging Facility,<br />

high-end fi eld emissions scanning electron microscope, School of Medicine,<br />

nursing laboratories, moot courts, Parramatta Community Justice Clinic,<br />

Crime Scene House, mechatronics facility and food processing pilot plant.<br />

Many courses include extensive work placements to give students industry<br />

ready credentials.<br />

The Excellence in Research for Australia (ERA) national report has provided<br />

further evidence of the excellence and depth of the University’s research. In<br />

this latest national report card, over 70 per cent of the University’s assessed<br />

research has been ranked at world class or better, putting UWS into the<br />

top 20 (18th) of research universities. UWS is now a confi rmed research<br />

leader in Australia fl owing from its investment in areas of research strength,<br />

research facilities and high-quality research education. Three of our areas<br />

of specialisation (plant biology, forestry sciences, and complementary<br />

medicine) have been assessed as ‘characterised by evidence of outstanding<br />

performance well above world standard’ and have received the highest<br />

possible ranking of ‘5’. UWS was the only Australian university to have<br />

suffi cient quality research in the area of complementary medicine to be<br />

assessed, and also attracted the highest possible ranking of ‘5’. UWS has<br />

four research institutes: the Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment, the<br />

Institute for Infrastructure Engineering, Institute for Culture and Society<br />

and the MARCS Institute. Each institute enhances the University’s research<br />

strengths and expertise in areas such as climate change, water conservation,<br />

smart engineering, the changing social landscape and human–machine<br />

communication.<br />

UWS continues to revitalise its campuses with building refurbishments and<br />

new facilities and services to enhance the student experience. The new gym<br />

at Penrith provides access to the latest equipment and professional trainers<br />

while on-campus accommodation for students at UWS has been expanded.<br />

Brand new buildings at the Parramatta campus now offer 345 beds. In<br />

addition, brand new accommodation facilities at Penrith and Campbelltown<br />

have lifted the number of available beds to over 1,500.<br />

At UWS we want you to engage in learning anytime, anywhere. As part of<br />

the University’s Blended Learning Strategy, an Apple iPad is provided to<br />

all commencing undergraduate students.* The iPad will enable students<br />

to engage with a growing number of online services, including lectures,<br />

class-based discussion forums, library resources, apps and other tools to<br />

provide them with the best possible learning and university experience. These<br />

services complement face-to-face teaching which remains core to teaching<br />

and learning at UWS. The iPad distribution is part of a comprehensive<br />

curriculum renewal strategy at UWS to provide more innovative, relevant,<br />

engaging and fl exible study options to students and embed technology into<br />

the curriculum.<br />

UWS strives to play a key, supportive role in our students’ academic career.<br />

Our courses are taught by leaders in their fi eld who work hard to share their<br />

knowledge with every student, every day. The academic staff includes the past<br />

two winners of the national University Teacher of the Year award, Professor<br />

James Arvanitakis and Professor Roy Tasker.<br />

UWS is committed to providing you with a quality education delivered in an<br />

environment tailor-made for academic success. A wide range of courses<br />

across broad areas of study is available. Our courses are designed to nourish<br />

your mind and prepare you for success in the real world. You will enjoy an<br />
