VTAC Applications 

VTAC applications opened on Monday 1 August for Year 12 students.

 

Students who are applying for post-secondary education at University or TAFE in 2017 will need to create an account by going to www.vtac.edu.au. They can then select up to 8 course preferences and will be able to pay the administration fee online ($32 for timely applications).

 

Students are reminded to apply by September 29 (5 pm) to avoid late fees ($100 for late applications and $130 for very late applications).

 

Once students have applied they have the option of changing their course preferences until December 20 (12 noon).

 

Students are reminded that the Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS) closes on October 4 (5 pm) and scholarships close on October 14 (5 pm).

 

We encourage all Year 12 students who wish to apply to tick the Category 1 – Personal information and location box on their SEAS application.

 

Some courses with folios or interviews may close early and it is ultimately the applicants responsibility to check all submission and application dates listed on VTAC.
