ATAR Bonus Points Information

The directory undergraduate bonus points reference edition 2013 is a new resource that has just been made available to Year 12 boys for 2013 university entry. The booklet provides an overview of Bonus ATAR points at the various institutions per HSC subjects and other schemes including Elite Athletes and Performers and Educational Access Scheme. Click here to get a copy.

What are Bonus ATAR Points?

Universities allocate bonus points in certain circumstances. Examples include performance in relevant HSC subjects, elite athlete and performers’ entry schemes, living or attending school in an area defined by the university, and consideration through Educational Access Schemes (see below). Bonus point schemes are different for each university, and often for each course at the same university. This means that your selection rank can be different for each course you list in your course preferences. For most Year 12 applicants, their selection rank for each preference is their ATAR. However, if universities allocate bonus points to you, then your selection rank for a preference = your ATAR + bonus points. Click here to read more.
