Please attach this documentation when submitting your application for admission. See ANU Undergraduate – Additional Selection Criteria for further information.
Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander applicants are encouraged to apply, and are asked to indicate this in their supplementary form. Please see ANU Undergraduate – Additional Selection Criteria for further information.
