In 2010 the Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) will replace the Universities Admissions Index (UAI).  Achieving an ATAR score of 99.95 is the same as achieving a UAI of 100- a student receiving 99.95 is in the top ranked group of students.

The rules of the ATAR are exactly the same as for the UAI.  The scaling process will be the same, the rank order will be the same and the same applicants will be selected for the same courses.  Any small change in an ATAR compared to a UAI will see an equivalent change in the course cut-off.

ICMS looks beyond the ATAR  to performance in HSC subjects. Your child can secure a place for a pathway to Macquarie degree before Christmas.

 

 

  

  

  

 Where and when do we submit a UAC application?
