Domestic students are not assessed on ATAR. Entry is based on your HSC subject average which must include English and your top three non-VET subjects.

Below are the minimum HSC subject averages needed for our diplomas:

• 75% for the Accelerated (eight month) diploma
• 67% for the Standard (12 month) diploma

UTS College diplomas are offered over eight months (accelerated) or 12 months (standard).

The diploma program you undertake will be based on your HSC subject average and the pace of learning you wish to undertake. For example, the eight-month accelerated program has a slightly higher study load and therefore requires a higher HSC subject average for entry. 

You will be taught Live Online. Our campus is closed until 30 September 2021, in line with NSW Government COVID-19 restrictions.

Our courses are taught using the leading online education platform Canvas and the latest video technology including Zoom and RingCentral. We teach ‘Live Online’ meaning our classes are scheduled live, our teachers can answer your questions in real time, and you can learn and collaborate with your fellow students online from anywhere in the world.

Outside class time, you can work both collaboratively and independently, with virtual access to teachers and learning support always at hand. You’ll develop future-ready skills for a changing world of study and work, with plenty of opportunities to engage in lively online social activities.

We offer premium higher education diplomas and as a private institution we don’t receive government funding.  We also limit are classes to less than 20 students, so students benefit from our personalised approach to learning.  The investment is $33,000 for an accelerated (8 month diploma) or standard (12 month) diploma.

When you complete your diploma, you will receive a Grade Point Average (GPA). Students who meet the minimum GPA for their desired course at UTS will receive a guaranteed place. And, depending on the course chosen, you may also be able to fast-track to second year at UTS. GPA requirements for each UTS degree can be found in our student guide.
