HOW TO APPLY

THIS IS UNI ENTRY WITHOUT THE ATAR

Not on an ATAR pathway? That’s totally fine!

We don’t base admission on your Year 12 results. That’s why you don’t need to be on an ATAR pathway at school, you just need to complete Year 12 to start your studies.

We’re more interested in your passion, your potential, and your readiness to succeed.

So, how can you get started? Applications can meet the Year 12 requirement and be eligible for an offer with:

A Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE), or
Passes in at least three (3) general/applied subjects from Year 12, or
The equivalent from any state or territory, or
A Certificate III or higher completed as part of your schooling.

Depending on your background, you might need to submit a few extra documents, but don’t stress. If you’re unsure reach out and our team will help guide you through it.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

Step 1

LODGE YOUR APPLICATION

APPLY VIA QTAC

If you are a current school leaver it’s best to apply directly via QTAC as your academic documentation will be automatically sent to QTAC for assessment.

Make sure you use the QTAC course code that is for both the Diploma AND the Bachelor to move directly into the Bachelor upon graduation – ie Diploma of Engineering/Bachelor of Engineering (Honours).

We participate in early offers, so you may be eligible for an offer before your year 12 exams or graduation.

DIRECT APPLICATIONS

If you are applying directly, we will need a copy of your completed qualification. You can apply early with a report card, however we will need your final statement upon completion.

If your qualification was completed overseas, ensure a translated copy is also provided. You will also need to meet the English requirements. Submit a certified copy of your English test results. View academic and English requirements here.
