Whether you are a Year 12 student, a non-school leaver, or want to further your studies, there are many ways to gain admission into your chosen course at Avondale University (Avondale). To determine your eligibility for entry, select the following option that applies to you.

info Your offer is provisional if you meet the required selection rank for your preferred undergraduate degree. Provisional means you have been accepted into the course with an academic status of probation because you did not meet the minimum entry requirements, but we determined that academic success is possible.
Several pathways are available if you completed Year 12 within the last two years but do not have an ATAR or did not achieve the results required for your chosen course. You don’t need to rely just on your ATAR to get into Avondale! Admission Pathways →
Avondale provides various pathways to our undergraduate degrees. Our pathways include options for those who have studied at TAFE, finished Year 12, studied at another university, or completed one of our Undergraduate Certificates, which are an introduction to university study. Following are the pathways available to non-school leavers.
There is no expiry on your ATAR – it is valid at Avondale until you have attempted more than one semester of higher education (e.g., bachelor-level study).
You could apply to study at Avondale if you completed at least two subjects/units at an accredited Australian university or higher education provider.
If you decide to come to university after completing a TAFE/VET qualification, a Certificate IV or higher qualifies you for entry into any Avondale degree. Even if you did not finish high school (Year 12), your TAFE/VET qualification may allow you to enter university.
If you do not have an ATAR or adequate formal qualifications, an appropriate score in the uniTEST and TOWA entrance exams may give you entry into an Avondale degree or undergraduate certificate. Admission Pathways →
We assess overseas qualifications per Appendix 1 of Avondale’s Admission to Higher Education Undergraduate Courses Policy. If you have qualifications from countries where English is not the standard language of instruction, you must provide evidence of English language proficiency. Please refer to Appendix 2 of the admissions policy.
For some courses, you may need to satisfy specific selection criteria – such as an interview, an audition, a questionnaire, a personal statement or a test – in addition to applying. Before applying, refer to the requirements’ admission criteria on the relevant course page. View Courses →
