How to get into ECU

We provide a wide range of entry pathways for year 12s to study our courses.

Dependent on your secondary studies, you may be able to enter as an:

  1. ATAR student (Studying 4 WACE courses at Stage 2 or above)
  2. Non ATAR student
If you aren't eligible to enter one of our Bachelors courses straight off, you might be eligible to enter one of our University Preparation Courses and use that as a stepping stone into a Bachelors degree!

Minimum admission requirements

There are minimum admission requirements to enter our undergraduate courses.

You must meet these in addition to meeting any special admission requirements for the course you intend to apply for.
