Follow the application process below to be considered for 2024 entry

  1. Select your preferred undergraduate degree

    Browse our undergraduate degrees and decide which course(s) you would like to apply for. Don’t forget to confirm if the degree(s) you're interested in consider Access Melbourne applications.

    Access Melbourne consideration does not apply to the Melbourne Chancellor’s Scholars program (unless you're an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander applicant), Graduate Degree Packages, concurrent diplomas or honours degrees.

    Browse undergraduate courses

  2. Apply for your preferred undergraduate courses through the Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre (VTAC)

    Once you’ve decided on your preferred undergraduate degree(s) you will need to submit an application via VTAC.

  3. Apply for Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS) with VTAC

    When you submit your VTAC application you’ll also be able to apply for SEAS consideration.

    SEAS is a VTAC managed, single application process that ensures you are considered for a range of access and equity programs offered by a number of tertiary institutions, including our Access Melbourne scheme.

    You can apply for every SEAS category that fits your circumstances. Applying for more categories may increase the amount of special consideration you receive.

    Remember to provide all required supporting documentation by the VTAC deadline. Supporting documentation may include: an impact statement, statement of support signed by a responsible independent source (i.e., doctor, lawyer, accountant, social worker), or copies of Government-issued correspondence.

    Your SEAS application will be sent to the University, in conjunction with your undergraduate course application.

  4. Application assessment and official University offers

    The University will assess your undergraduate degree application, along with your SEAS application.

    If you are successful, you’ll receive a Melbourne offer with instructions about how to accept.
