We are pleased to announce that we will be providing all school leaver students with 5 adjustment points for all programs (excluding the Joint Medical Program).

These additional adjustment points are in recognition of the extraordinary challenges year 12 students have faced since the start of last year. We would love to see these extra points providing encouragement for students to continue to strive for their best results in the HSC.

The 5 adjustment points will automatically be applied by UAC and there is no need for any additional application. Students are eligible for a maximum of 12 adjustment points.

We also wanted to let you know that despite the delay in ATARs, we will still be providing students with a pathway to receive an offer prior to Christmas. Our Schools Recommendation Scheme (SRS) offers will be released from November Round 1. This is an important pathway for our school leaver cohort. Nearly 50% of our commencing school leaver applicants came in through the SRS last year, so we would encourage as many of your students to apply before the September 19 deadline (see here for more details).

2022 Accommodation Applications Opening 7 October

Semester 1, 2022 accommodation applications will open on Thursday 7 October. Students will be required to pay a $100 application fee.

To ensure an easy application process, we encourage students to register a profile on the Student Living Accommodation Portal.

Students can view our different accommodation options on our website.

Accommodation applications are extremely competitive, with hundreds of students applying to live on campus every year.

We encourage all students to be ready to apply as soon as applications open to ensure the best possible chance of living on campus next year!
