How to apply easy guide

Entry requirements depends on the course stream you choose. These streams are:

• Standard (3 semesters – 12 months)
• Accelerated (2 semesters – 8 months)

Entry to a UTS College diploma is based on your HSC subject average of English plus your best 3 board developed courses:

• 75% for Accelerated
• 67% for Standard

Entry to UTS College - subject average example:

Sam received the following marks for their HSC board-developed courses:
 
English Standard (65%)
Earth and Environmental Science (71%)
Mathematics Standard 2 (73%)
Music 1 (63%)
Japanese Beginners (68%)
 
Based on this ATARNotes calculator, Sam is predicted to receive an ATAR of 51.10.
 
Sam's UTS College subject average is calculated as English Standard (65%), plus their best 3 board-developed courses of Earth and Environmental Science (71%), Mathematics Standard 2 (73%) and Japanese Beginners (68%). Average
(65+71+73+68) / 4 = 69.25%.
 
While Sam's ATAR is 51.10, their UTS College subject average is 69.25%. Sam wants to study a Diploma of Science and can study a Standard 12-month diploma (min. 67% average).
