Prerequisite Senior Secondary Studies

Physics and Mathematics Methods

Applicants with higher education study

Applicants may be considered for admission based on a completed or incomplete tertiary study at Diploma level or higher taken at any Australian University, or successfully complete a bridging or enabling course from any Australian University. All applicants must meet the General Entry Requirements and any relevant course entry requirements.

Applicants with a tertiary study may be able to apply for recognition of prior studies that may count towards the requirements for the degree you are applying for at the University of Tasmania.

Applicants with vocational education and training (VET) study

Applicants may be considered for admission based on successful completion of an AQF accredited award at Certificate III or above. All applicants must meet the General Entry Requirements and any relevant course entry requirements.

Awards at AQF Certificate III level must be in a relevant discipline to the chosen course.

Applicants with work and life experience

Applicants who have not successfully completed senior secondary, tertiary or TAFE/VET study, but have other relevant work experience and background are required to complete a personal competency statement and demonstrate how that experience meets the University's General Entry Requirements (GER). GER is met if the applicant can demonstrate sustained employment background or work and life experiences that demonstrate a capacity to succeed in their chosen course of study.

Finished secondary education more than two years ago

Applicants who have:

• completed an Australian Senior Secondary Certificate of Education and qualify for the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), Queensland Overall Position (OP) or the International Baccalaureate (IB), and
• completed the senior secondary education more than two years ago, and
• have no other higher AQF study,

will be considered on the basis of their Senior Secondary qualification.

Bridging and enabling course entry

Applicants who are not able to meet the degree-level entry requirements will be considered for an entry pathway into a pre-degree award course or preparatory program within the Pre-degree framework based upon their academic, professional and employment history.

Applicants with recent secondary education (within the past two years)

Applicants who have completed an Australian Senior Secondary Certificate of Education and qualify for the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), Queensland Overall Position (OP) or the International Baccalaureate (IB) have their score converted to an equivalent selection rank. A selection rank is a score between 99 (highest) and 1 (lowest) used to compare people applying for a course. This rank ensures all applicants are compared on merit.
