Entry requirements
Switch between domestic ATAR data and international qualification equivalents.
Use the domestic ATAR data for now, or ask Achieva AI to assess your background manually.
If the student's current English result is below the direct-entry requirement, consider the university's recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package. When the student successfully completes the approved pathway at the required level, the university may accept that pathway for English entry without requiring a new IELTS, TOEFL or PTE result. Always confirm exclusions for professional registration courses and the offer conditions.
