Section 5 – Tertiary Entrance Information

To gain entrance to any particular university faculty students must satisfy three requirements, by completing:

• the appropriate subject package, including any prerequisite subjects;

• the required marks or grades in key subjects specified by the faculty;

• a tertiary entrance score (or equivalent indicator of overall academic achievement) higher than the quota cut-off mark for that faculty.

In all states only a particular type of subject may count for tertiary entrance.

What are the minimum subject requirements for tertiary entrance in each State or Territory?
