Guaranteed ATAR: Domestic school-leaver applicants who: completed an Australian Year 12 qualification or the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma in 2021 (or will complete an Australian Year 12 qualification or the IB Diploma by mid-year 2022); apply for their preferred undergraduate course in VTAC; satisfy course prerequisites; achieve the Guaranteed ATAR (or notional ATAR), and preference appropriately to receive an offer will be certain of a place in their chosen degree. Please note that you will not be classified as a school-leaver applicant if you have completed any tertiary studies since completing the Australian Year 12 or the IB Diploma (or equivalent).
Indicative minimum ATAR: Domestic school-leaver applicants who satisfy course prerequisites and achieve the 2022 minimum ATAR will still be considered for a place but are not guaranteed. The lowest selection ATAR to which a domestic offer is made may be higher than the minimum ATAR, depending on demand for the course and the number of places available. Only domestic applicants eligible for special entry schemes may be admitted below the minimum ATAR.
Indicative minimum WAM (%): Final entry standards in our mid-year intake depend upon the demand for our available places, which means that meeting the indicative minimum weighted average mark (WAM) published here does not guarantee a place.

“The beauty of doing a Melbourne undergraduate degree is that my decision isn't set in stone; I still have lots of time to explore what I'm interested in. I might change my mind, or I might not, but whatever decision I make, I know I'll have years of study to back it up."
