YEAR 12'S ONLY

SEAS and Scholarship Documentation

A reminder that students who submit their SEAS and Scholarships documentation by Friday 16 September will be guaranteed a review of their documents by VTAC and contacted if there are any problems with them, for example, if they are illegible or out of date.

This will give you time to resubmit documents if they are found to have problems, before the final SEAS and Scholarships deadline of 5pm on 7 October. 

VTAC will continue to review documents submitted after the advisory deadline (16th Sept) and prior to the final deadline (7th Oct) but cannot guarantee that the initial review of your supporting documentation will be completed in time for resubmission of rejected documents.

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT the closing date for SEAS, it is simply a service by VTAC, to review your supporting documentation and advise you if you need to change anything BEFORE the closing date 7th October.

After this date (16th September) you will NOT be notified if your SEAS is inaccurate
