UTS: Admission requirements - University of Technology, Sydney

Before you apply for a UTS undergraduate course, check that you meet at least one of the eligibility criteria listed below.

If you meet one of the listed criteria you will be eligible to be considered for selection; however you still have to compete for an offer on the basis of your academic qualifications. Applicants are selected by considering the qualifications accepted by each faculty described below in faculty admission requirements.

Some faculties have higher requirements for entry than those listed below in the eligibility criteria. For example, not all faculties will consider the Limited UAI or TAFE Tertiary Preparation Certificate (TPC) for selection purposes, even though you have satisfied UTS eligibility criteria listed below.
