Define the meaning of " entry requirements to higher education institutions

Standard selection methods

Standard selection methods include the typical academic entry requirements, as well as other additional testing criteria for competitive courses or those that require a high degree of talent. The most common methods used to select students for higher education courses include:

cut-off scores

prerequisite studies

academic history

supplementary information forms

other methods such as tests, portfolios, auditions and interviews.

Alternative selection methods

Alternative selection methods are used by education providers to assist students who may:

otherwise not meet narrow standard selection criteria

have been disadvantaged throughout their schooling

have other relevant skills and experience that make them a suitable candidate.

Alternative entry criteria

If you don't meet standard entry requirements (whether it's because you didn't receive a high entry score or don't meet other requirements), higher education providers may apply alternative selection methods or criteria to help you enter the course you want.

Alternative entry criteria may include:

interview performance

relevant experience in the workforce

other study completed after school

a statement of the applicant's suitability

an aptitude test.

Note that rules and criteria for alternative selection methods and schemes will vary between institutions and courses. Check with any institution you are considering before beginning the application process.

Equity schemes

Most higher education providers have special schemes for school leavers who might otherwise find it hard to enter their course due to disadvantage or special circumstances.

Alternative entry schemes are usually available for the following equity groups:

people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent

people with disability

people from non-English-speaking backgrounds (NESB)

people from rural or isolated areas

people from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds

people studying in areas that suffer from gender inequality

Students may also be eligible for equity schemes if they have suffered from difficult family circumstances or educational disadvantage (this is generally defined as students who attended a school or live in an area that has low rates of participation in higher education).
