Eligibility for Enrolment

What are the entry requirements?

Please refer to specific entry requirements for each degree as specified in our CourseFinder, or in the essential information box, which is listed in the Undergraduate course information brochures.

For Bachelor degrees, applicants must complete the NSW HSC or equivalent.

You can apply using your results regardless of when you completed school. We can translate your marks as part of the application process, from the NSW HSC (or equivalent) into a UAI.

If you did not do the NSW HSC (or equivalent) and do not have a ATAR (or equivalent), you will need to satisfy the requirements/achieve the required score for one of the schemes listed in academic entry pathways.

Special Access Schemes, Bonus UAI & Points to UOW

Even if you have not completed the current NSW HSC (or equivalent) in full, or you did not receive the required entry mark, you may still qualify for admission.

Points to UOW

Points to UOW is a program where by additional admission points are awarded to students for their performance in HSC subjects that are relevant to the knowledge required to undertake specific undergraduate programs at UOW. If you completed your HSC this year, and you completed the relevant subjects, you may be eligible for bonus points. Read more...

Alternative entry paths

Early Entry Program

At the University of Wollongong we recognise that the UAI is not the only indication of your aptitude to excel at university level.

The Early Entry program allows current Year 12 students to apply for early acceptance into a number of degrees. Successful applicants will receive either a guaranteed place or a place that is conditional upon the results of their final exams. Entry is based on the student's academic record (including Trial HSC results) and an interview. Find out more about our Early Entry program

Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander applicants

This program gives Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders access to study through an achievement test and an interview. The test examines literacy, numeracy and learning comprehension skills. Find out more about the Woolyungah Indigenous Centre or contact them (reverse charges if necessary) on 02 4221 5894 or 02 4221 3776

 Academic entry pathways

The following is a list of the possible pathways you can choose to undertake in order to satisfy the academic entry requirements for a Bachelor degree at UOW. Please note, completion of these courses does not guarantee admission into UOW.

Australian Year 12

You can apply using your Australian Year 12 results or an overseas equivalent regardless of when you completed your schooling. Your results will be converted to a UAI which must reach the current minimum UAI for consideration. A UAI is a number between 0.00 and 100.00 with increments of 0.05, which provide a measure of overall academic achievement in the NSW HSC (or equivalent). This number assists universities in ranking applicants for university selection.

Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT)

You can gain entry to UOW via the two hour multiple choice STAT. The STAT is designed to assess a range of skills and knowledge you will need for tertiary study. It is coordinated by the Universities Admission Centre (UAC) and held several times a year. Click here for more information.  

TAFE/AQF qualifications

The following qualifications may be submitted for assessment of entry eligibility*:

  • Diploma (TAFE)
  • Advanced Diploma
  • Associate Diploma
  • Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) Level IV Certificate (excluding trade certificates).

Admission is dependent on the completion of the course and the level of academic performance achieved.

Some Credit transfer may be granted for these awards (excluding Certificate IV).

*Successful completion of a TAFE/AQF qualification may not provide entry to all undergraduate programs.

TAFE Tertiary Preparation Certificate (TPC)

The TPC is an option for people who wish to gain entrance to the University and for whom a HSC course may be inappropriate. Entry is dependent on the level of academic performance achieved in the TPC.
