Pathways fromuniversity <strong>to</strong> vocational education and training qualifications arealso becoming increasingly popular as a way of gaining the industryexperience needed <strong>to</strong> increase employment opportunities.For more information on Pathways visit www.vu.edu.au/coursesCredit Transfer and Recognition of PriorLearning (RPL):Credit Transfer recognises a course or units a student has previouslyundertaken and enables the student <strong>to</strong> gain credit in anothercourse.

ATAR and resultsThe ATAR*The Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) is calculated by VTACsolely for the use of tertiary institutions <strong>to</strong> compare the overallachievement of students who have completed different combinations ofVCE studies. VTAC forwards the ATAR along with application information<strong>to</strong> selection authorities at institutions.For information about how the ATAR is used for selectionsee: Selection and offers (page 26).* ATAR was previously known as ENTER (Equivalent National TertiaryEntrance Rank). The change <strong>to</strong> ATAR, the nationally agreed name usedby all Australian states and terri<strong>to</strong>ries (except Queensland), is a changein name only. There will be no change <strong>to</strong> the calculation.<strong>How</strong> is the ATAR calculated?VTAC uses VCE results issued by VCAA (Vic<strong>to</strong>rian Curriculum andAssessment Authority) <strong>to</strong> calculate the ATAR.!The ATAR is not a score – it is a rank (which shows astudent’s achievement in relation <strong>to</strong> other students).Subject <strong>to</strong> the restrictions outlined in VICTER 2012, 2013 and 2014(available at www.vtac.edu.au) the ATAR is developed from an aggregateproduced by adding:1. ATAR subject score in English, English Language, Literature or ESL2. The next best three ATAR subject scores permissible; and3. 10% of the fifth and sixth permissible ATAR subject scores thatare available.Who gets an ATAR?VCE students: VTAC calculates an ATAR for all VCE students who havesuccessfully completed the VCE and satisfied minimum tertiary entrancerequirements. Only applicants who have at least four VCE study scores inan acceptable combination will have an ATAR calculated.Interstate Year 12 students: If you are studying an interstate Year 12,VTAC receives your results and ranks from your state admissions centre/authority. Interstate Year 12 results (except Queensland) provide youwith an ATAR.Queensland uses a ranking system (OP) which is not equivalent <strong>to</strong> theATAR. A conversion table for the Queensland OP <strong>to</strong> the ATAR is availableon the QTAC website (www.qtac.edu.au).Notional ATARA notional ATAR is a rank calculated by VTAC used <strong>to</strong> directly comparethe results of applicants who have studied under different Vic<strong>to</strong>rianeducational systems. For example, if you have gained a Vic<strong>to</strong>riansecondary qualification other than the VCE (i.e. Matriculation, HSC, IB),you will not have an ATAR. A notional ATAR is calculated <strong>to</strong> indicate thatyou meet minimum tertiary entrance requirements in Vic<strong>to</strong>ria.A notional ATAR is created for:• all applicants who have successfully completed a full Vic<strong>to</strong>rian Year12 attempt prior <strong>to</strong> 1992• all applicants with a combination of pre-1992 and post-1992Vic<strong>to</strong>rian Year 12 subjects (including English) who have for the firsttime, at least four VCE study scores, VCE (HSC) Group 1 subjects ortheir predecessors• all applicants who have studied International Baccalaureate inVic<strong>to</strong>ria, qualified for the IB Diploma and sat the GAT (or receivedformal exemption).Getting your resultsVic<strong>to</strong>rian Year 12 studentsIf you are a current VCE student:• your VCE study scores, ATAR and ATAR subject scores will be available<strong>to</strong> you via internet, telephone and SMS services. See page 1 for dates.All current VCE students will receive a statement of VCE study scoresfrom the VCAA. <strong>How</strong>ever, only students who have applied for coursesthrough VTAC this year and have paid their VTAC fees will be sent anATAR statement.If you completed Year 12 in Vic<strong>to</strong>ria in a previous year:• you can request a statement of your ATAR (or Notional ATAR) bydownloading and completing the Request for VTAC documentationform from the VTAC website and either faxing it with credit carddetails or sending it by mail <strong>to</strong> VTAC enclosing a cheque or moneyorder (payable <strong>to</strong> VTAC).

Selection and offersAbout selection!VTAC does not select applicants nor does VTAC influencedecisions made by selection authorities at institutions.Selection is the responsibility of each institution’s course selectionauthorities. When considering your application, course authorities takein<strong>to</strong> account published institutional and course entrance requirements,prerequisite studies and methods such as interviews, folios andsupplementary forms. For a list of the methods used for selection <strong>to</strong> acourse, see Selection mode in the course entries in this guide and on theVTAC website.Two models of selectionIndividual courses basically have two models of selection for the twomajor applicant groups; current Year 12 students studying an AustralianYear 12 or the IB in Australia and recent Year 12 graduates and adultsnot currently studying Year 12.Current Year 12 students studying an AustralianYear 12 or the International Baccalaureate (IB) inAustraliaRange of criteriaApproximately 50% of all courses in the VTAC Guide use a range ofcriteria that may include the ATAR as well as other fac<strong>to</strong>rs such asinterview, folio presentations, pre-selection tests, additional forms andso on. Within this mix of criteria there may be different requirements forcurrent Year 12 students and adults.ATAR and two-stage process with a middle-band of 20%For courses using this selection method about 80% of places aredetermined by the ATAR alone. For the remainder of places in thesecourses, additional information is considered for the applicants who donot have an ATAR high enough <strong>to</strong> guarantee au<strong>to</strong>matic selection, buthave an ATAR above that which leads <strong>to</strong> au<strong>to</strong>matic rejection.These applicants are in the ‘middle-band’ and are evaluated in accordwith the middle-band criteria outlined in individual course entries in theVTAC Guide.These fac<strong>to</strong>rs are used, in addition <strong>to</strong> the Prerequisites and Extrarequirements in course entries, <strong>to</strong> rank applicants in the middle-bandand fill the balance of the course quota.Selection requirements for adultsWhile all of your previous education is taken in<strong>to</strong> consideration when<strong>apply</strong>ing through VTAC, many course authorities understand that yourmotivation, life and work experience may be completely different (andimproved) <strong>to</strong> what it was when you were 17 or 18 and that irrespectiveof age, you may be a good candidate for the course.As a result there are often different selection requirements for adults(referred <strong>to</strong> as non-Year 12 applicants) <strong>to</strong> those outlined for current Year12 students.
