Select your UAC preferences with confidence. Find out what selection rank you need to guarantee entry to your dream course.
Guaranteed Entry gives you a confirmed place in an eligible degree with available places if you achieve the required selection rank and meet any other admission criteria.
Your selection rank is your ATAR plus any adjustment factors you receive through our entry schemes.
To receive an offer in a degree with Guaranteed Entry, you must:
If you don’t meet the guaranteed selection rank, you may still be eligible to receive an offer depending on the availability of places in the course.
Adjustment factors increase your selection rank based on factors such as your performance in HSC subjects, the location of your school or your eligibility for entry schemes.
Adjustment factors don't change your ATAR, they change your selection rank for a particular course. If you are not eligible for adjustment factors, your selection rank is your ATAR.
Domestic students completing other qualifications (e.g. IBAS and VCE) may also be eligible for adjustment factors, which will be applied to your ATAR equivalent rank.
If you meet the guaranteed selection rank and all admission criteria for your course, you will be eligible to receive an offer of admission. If you receive an offer, you will be notified through UAC.
The majority of offers are made in the first offer round after the release of ATARs. Some courses may fill up at this time. This means that for future offer rounds, you may not be made an offer even if you meet the Guaranteed Entry requirements, as there are no places available.
For students who will complete the NSW HSC in 2025, Guaranteed Entry applies to UAC’s December Round 2. Preferences for this round close on 18 December, and offers will be made on 23 December 2025.
For students applying for Semester 2 entry, Guaranteed Entry will apply to the first UAC offer round in which you are eligible to receive an offer.
For students completing an interstate qualification, Guaranteed Entry will apply to the first UAC offer round in which you are eligible to receive an offer.
You are eligible for Guaranteed Entry if you:
Guaranteed Entry is available to students who receive an IB Admissions Score (IBAS) based on the ATAR conversion supplied by UAC. Students who obtain a converted ATAR above the guaranteed entry score for relevant courses in the round immediately after they receive their results are eligible.
Domestic students should refer to UAC to learn more about the conversion of IB results to an ATAR equivalent.
If you complete the National Certificate in Educational Achievement (NCEA) Level 3, an Interstate Transfer Index (ITI) will be calculated by the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA). This will be used in the admission process as the ATAR equivalent score, provided you have fulfilled university entrance requirements as set by NZQA.
Guaranteed Entry is not relevant to international students. Read the admission guide for further information:

Some courses do not have a guaranteed selection rank and are indicative. These selection ranks can be used as a guide and listed under excluded courses. To be eligible for admission, you may need to achieve a higher selection rank and, for some courses, meet additional admission criteria.
