QTAC: TERTIARY APPLICATION PROCESS
QTAC Applications opened Tuesday, 2 August 2022. Students should have opened their QTAC account, enter their tertiary preferences and complete additional documentation supporting their application. It is recommended that students order their preferences as follows:
|
1st |

2nd |

|

3rd |
Back-up courses |

|
6th |
Courses that will help them to get into the course they really want |
Additionally, students will also need to sign-up to the ATAR Portal through QTAC to access their ATAR once released.
For students who have experienced disruption to their recent studies by financial or personal challenges, they are encouraged to apply through QTAC’s Educational Access Scheme (EAS). Through the EAS, students may receive adjustments to their QTAC selection rank. This can help students compete for tertiary study on a more equal basis. If students are eligible for the Financial Hardship category, they may also get financial assistance from institutions, such as scholarships or bursaries. QTAC will assess a student’s application for eligibility for EAS.
QTAC will shortly release the key dates for 2023 applications.
TERTIARY, SCHOLARSHIP & ACCOMMODATION APPLICATIONS – SCHOOL DOCUMENTATION
Where students are requiring school documentation to support their application, students are directed to contact me.
VOCATIONAL EDUCATION & TRAINING
The 2023 TAFE at Schools course offerings are now available. Students entering Year 11 or 12 next year may elect to study a Certificate II course on Wednesdays, as part of their senior education and training plan. These courses are very popular and fill quickly, therefore early applications are highly advised to avoid missing out on an offer. Applications opened Monday 15 August 2022. A copy of the 2023 TAFE at School course guide can be obtained from me – just pop up to the library and ask to see me.
To apply for a TAFE course, go to tafeapply.com and use the application code TQN2301. Students will need a USI when applying.
Students interested in applying for the Electrotechnology course will need to sit a short pre-vocational assessment at school, and will need to see me to arrange this as soon as possible. Additionally, all current Year 10 and Year 11 students considering a TAFE course next year should see me regarding courses and the application process.
