Where to get further information
Applying to study at university or TAFE can seem overwhelming, but at VU we keep the admissions process as simple as possible.
VU is one of only six universities in Australia that offers both TAFE and university courses - from Certificate courses through to Masters and PhDs. You can begin your studies at VU Polytechnic and complete a TAFE qualification; and, if you choose to pathway to a tertiary degree, you will receive recognition for prior learning.
We know that there is more than one way to succeed at learning and our admissions approach reflects that. If you didn’t achieve the ATAR you’d hoped for, this won’t limit the future success you can achieve in your studies and career.
Read clear and simple instructions on how to apply and take the next step to secure your future studies and career, today.
VU's admissions approach Our admissions process keeps things as simple as possible, and we only consider ATAR for some of our courses.
ATAR profile View data from the most recent intake period for courses requiring an ATAR.
Non-ATAR courses Courses at VU that do not require an ATAR for entry.
How course applications are assessed Applications are assessed against the admission criteria published on each course page on our website, and on the VTAC Course Search page.

Admissions procedure Policy information about eligibility, entry requirements and offer types.
You must meet the minimum academic entry requirements in order to be eligible for admission into your chosen course.
Course-specific requirements can be found in both VU's course search and the VTAC Course Search .
If you have completed your Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE), an Australian or overseas equivalent, or an International Baccalaureate (IB) in the last two years, you must meet any course prerequisites.
Courses may also list ATAR as the basis for selection; you can find the previous year's data for these courses in the ATAR information set.
Some undergraduate courses at Victoria University may also require a minimum ATAR and other selection criteria to be met. See the ATAR profile to get an idea of previous intakes.
In this category, if you are not applying with a completed qualification, you must have completed some higher education study. Some courses require at least two completed units, but most require at least six months of continuous study, or four units of completed study in an undergraduate degree or higher qualification. Check individual course pages for detailed admission criteria.
You must also meet the course-specific eligibility criteria of the relevant course you are applying to.
To be considered, you should have satisfactorily completed an accredited award at Diploma or above at an Australian Registered Training Organisation. Many Victoria University courses will accept a completed Certificate IV in Tertiary Preparation or a related discipline. Check course pages for detailed admission criteria.
If you do not have any formal academic history, you may be considered on the basis of other work or life experiences. Check your course page for specific work and life experience admission criteria.
Special admission programs We can help you get into your course with our special admission programs, so that you can reach your true potential.
The table below provides an indication of the likely peer cohort for new students at Victoria University.
It provides data on students that commenced undergraduate study in Semester 1, 2021 and were enrolled post census date across all Australian campuses and includes data on International students studying in Australia.
Student numbers in the table have been grouped by the most relevant study or work background of the applicant cohort.
