- Autumn semester commences late February/early March. Applications open early August the year before the intake.
- Spring semester commences late July/early August. Applications open early April each year.
Steps to apply for undergraduate admission
Step 1
Check that you meet at least one of the UTS admission requirements eligibility criteria.
You can also check individual course selection criteria for current school leavers and non current school leavers in the faculty admission requirements.
Step 2
Check application open and close dates and course availability through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) (opens an external site) website.
Step 3
Check if the courses you are applying for have any additional selection criteria to be submitted.
If compulsory personal statements or questionnaires are not submitted by the due date you will not be considered for the course.
If your previous studies were undertaken in an overseas country you may need to provide evidence of your English language proficiency. Check the UAC undergraduate English language proficiency (opens an external site) website for requirements.
Step 4 - Apply!
Applications for the majority of undergraduate courses at UTS are taken by the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) (opens an external site).
A few undergraduate courses (e.g. honours degrees and Adult Education courses) need to be applied for directly to UTS. Direct applications open soon after UAC applications. Direct application forms are available, once applications have opened, from UTS Student Centres.
