UAC – NSW and ACT

Applications for study in 2022 and semester 2, 2021 are now open. Students can apply for undergraduate study as well as Schools Recommendation Schemes, Educational Access Schemes and Equity Scholarships.

ACCESS AND SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS 

Educational Access Schemes (EAS)

Institutions acknowledge that difficult circumstances can prevent students from reaching their true academic potential, particularly if their educational performance has been affected by long-term disadvantage. Educational Access Schemes (EAS) can help.

EQUITY SCHOLARSHIPS

Equity Scholarships (ES) help financially disadvantaged students with the costs associated with tertiary study. Details of requirements for individual scholarships can be found on the institution websites.

SCHOOLS RECOMMENDATION SCHEMES (SRS)

Schools Recommendation Schemes (SRS) are one way institutions make early offers of undergraduate admission to Year 12 students. They do this by using criteria other than (or in addition to) the ATAR. You must apply through UAC for undergraduate admission in 2021–22 to be eligible for SRS.

SPECIAL ENTRY REQUIREMENTS 

Certain undergraduate courses such as medicine, dentistry, health science and law degree programs require applicants to sit an admissions test for entry.

Check the course descriptions on the undergraduate course search to find out if the course you're interested in has any special entry requirements.

Medicine, medical sciences and dentistry

Some institutions will require you to sit the University Clinical Aptitude Test (UCAT).

Law

For students interested in studying law at UNSW in 2022, the Law Admission Test (LAT) will be held on Thursday 30 September 2021. Visit UNSW’s website for further information.
