Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT)
For courses with STAT listed under Extra Requirements, applicants must sit the STAT if they:
- Do not satisfy the Minimum tertiary entry requirements (see both VTAC Minimum Tertiary Entrance Requirements and also Swinburne's Non Year 12 Minimum Requirements); or
- Have no school, TAFE or university results recent enough to be considered for entry (i.e. within the past seven years); or
- Have TAFE or other tertiary qualifications with ungraded assessment (only have pass/fail results rather than actual grades) and no other basis for entry; or
- Have VCAL or other secondary study with ungraded assessment (only have pass/fail results rather than actual grades) but no other basis for entry; or
- Have an ENTER score attained prior to 2008 which is below the 2009 Clearly-In ENTER score for the course.
Further Information
Applicants should note that because of the demand for places in a course, meeting the above criteria does not guarantee entry into a program.
Registration to sit the STAT is made at the time of application to a course by completing the relevant question in the online VTAC application.
Further Information
For further information about registration, venues, sitting dates and fees related to the STAT refer to the Admissions Tests page on the VTAC website.
If you are unsure about whether you need to sit the STAT contact the Faculty administering the course you are intending to study.
