    Notes
    • You’ll need to use course codes for applying or changing preferences. You can also find these codes and course information using the ‘Course Search’
    function on TISCOnline. For most courses, you’ll be selected for admission to university in 2020 on the basis of your ATAR/Selection Rank.
    • All courses have a prerequisite of English Language Competence. Some courses have additional prerequisites. Check the UWA course information on
    Course Search for further details.

    UWA has listed Guaranteed ATARs/Selection Ranks for most of its courses. If you achieve the Guaranteed ATAR/Selection Rank for a course, you are guaran-
    teed acceptance into that course, provided you also achieve WACE, English Competency and a scaled score of 50 or more in the ATAR course prerequisites
    listed for the course. Remember though, the offer you receive will depend on your preference order. Some courses have no Guaranteed ATAR/Selection Rank
    listed as they use additional selection criteria (such as UCAT ANZ, audition, interview, etc.) and/or have limited places available. Minimum ATARs/Selection
    Ranks have also been provided. Minimum ATAR/Selection Ranks show you the rank needed to be considered for entry to a course. However, obtaining these
    ranks is not a guarantee of being selected for a place in these courses. Some courses will have ‘N/A’ for the minimum ATAR/Selection Rank as an ATAR is not
    applicable due to emphasis on other eligibility criteria. For most courses, information on the lowest, highest and median ATARs and Selection Ranks offered
    places in 2019 is available on TISC Course Search or university websites. For more information on Selection Ranks visit tisc.edu.au
