Table A Advanced Stream

The Advanced stream is only available in the Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Advanced Studies.

The Advanced stream requires:

  • An ATAR of 95.0
  • For transfer students, a WAM of 70.0
  • To remain in the stream, a WAM of 65.0 in each 48 credit point block
  • Completion of a major in which a minimum of 24 credit points of advanced units of study at the 2000- and 3000-levels are taken.

Advanced units are either units designated “Adv” in the list of units for the major in Table A or units taken at a level higher level than the unit specified for the major in Table A.

For example, where Table A specifies a unit at 2000 level, a student doing a 3000-level unit in its place would be regarded as completing an advanced unit.

At the discretion of the discipline, the 24 credit points of advanced units of study can either:

  • be all at the 3000-level
  • 18 credit points at 3000 and 6 credit points at 2000, or
  • 12 credit points at 3000 and 12 credit points at 2000
