Adjustment Factors : (formerly known as Bonus points)

“For applicants who are eligible for year 12
adjustment factors, SATAC will add the points to the
university aggregate. The year 12 selection rank for
the university or course/program listed as a
preference will then be the ATAR which corresponds
to the revised aggregate.”
