What marks or grades do I need?
Direct entry to our undergraduate programs for international students is determined by an international selection rank or course cut-off score. Each degree has a specific international selection rank which is converted into the minimum score you need to achieve in your overseas qualification to be considered for entry.
The tables below provide international selection rank conversions for qualifications from over 40 countries, including many globally-recognised qualifications such as GCE A-Levels and the International Baccalaureate (IB):
Worried that you will not meet the minimum score for your program?
Not a problem - please have a look at our International Academic Entry Program where we may be able consider your eligibility based on your English results and academic performance in mathematics and other subjects.
Can't find your score or qualification?
If you cannot find the required score for your qualification, please do not hesitate to submit an application and our admissions team will assess your eligibility.
International Academic Entry Program
Should you not meet the minimum cut-off score for entry into your selected undergraduate course, you may still be able to qualify for admission under our International Academic Entry Program (IAEP). Under this entry program, we will consider your overall performance and your individual subject scores that match your strengths to one of our world-class courses.
Listed below are the minimum scores that you would need to achieve in the Higher School Certificate (HSC) Mathematics and other subjects to be considered for entry under this pathway. The HSC is the Year 12 senior high school qualification that is completed by students residing in New South Wales, Australia. Equivalent subjects from other recognised international senior high school qualifications or university entry examinations will also be considered.
Provided you already meet the English requirements for your selected course either via the HSC English subject listed below or via other accepted evidence of English proficiency, we will consider your overall score and your performance in relevant subjects as an alternative means of entry.
You do not need to apply for the IAEP. If you do not meet the course cut-off, our Admissions team will automatically assess your eligibility.
