At UWS we recognise TAFE or other higher education qualifications, as well as some relevant professional qualifications and work experience. These may count towards your degree and you could be eligible for guaranteed entry to a UWS degree. They may also effectively reduce the time required for you to complete your degree.
As you are no longer a Year 12 student, you are considered a non current school leaver when applying for university. Your application to study will be assessed on four criteria:
- NSW HSC or equivalent
- TAFE or Tertiary studies
- Work Experience
- Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT)
Each criteria will be given a rank out of 100, and the highest rank will be used for you to competitively gain entry to a course.
If you have more than five years work experience you may be eligible for Postgraduate Study (opens in a new window) at UWS.
Your Application Steps
- Search the UWS Mid-Year Entry Areas of Study to find a course of interest to you.

Once you have all the information you need, you are ready to apply on line to the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) (opens in a new window)
