Careers News
admissions
Please scroll through and expand the University cards or website cards of choice to review content. 2025
Applications for 2025 entry open on 3 April for domestic students and 17 April for international students. UAC will email UAC PINs to all NSW HSC and ACT BSSS students on 3 April. Students will need their NESA or BSSS student number and their UAC PIN to apply through UAC.
Interstate and IB students should wait until 1 August to apply as UAC won't receive their student data until later in the year. I'll let you know if this changes.
Access schemes
When applications for admission open, so will applications for the Schools Recommendation Scheme (SRS) and the Educational Access Scheme (EAS). This year there are a few changes.
SRS application changes
The SRS application is now part of the undergraduate application, similar to EAS. Once a student submits their undergraduate application, they can follow a link to SRS: there will no longer be a standalone application accessible from the UAC website.
Students will be asked to confirm that their school name is correct. If a student needs to upload their Year 11 results, they will be prompted to do so.
EAS process change for schools
This year we will not accept emailed educational impact statements (EIS). However, if you cannot give the EIS to the student to upload to their EAS application, you will be able to upload it through the School Access portal (where you now complete SRS ratings). More details will come soon.
In 2023, an increased number of applicants provided EIS from people not considered ‘responsible persons’ (eg parents, other relatives, gardeners, cleaners). This year we will add the definition of a responsible person to each document package.
EIS must be completed by the school principal, counsellor, year adviser, teacher or careers adviser. If this is not possible it must be completed by a responsible person, such as a doctor, lawyer, social worker, counsellor, or community or religious leader who has knowledge of the circumstances and the effect on the student's studies.
Finally, a reminder that EAS is only used for ATAR-based offers unless otherwise specified.
UAC publications
Another reminder: as advised in my April 2023 email, UAC is no longer producing the UAC Guide. All information about the next admissions cycle will be updated on the UAC website from April.
If students would like a printed information booklet, they can pick up a copy of Steps to Uni for Year 11 and 12 Students from one of the many expos we'll be attending this year. If you are from an interstate school, we'll be bringing Applying to NSW and ACT Universities with us to the VCE and Careers Expo in Melbourne, TSXPO in Brisbane and the TIS roadshow in Tasmania.
Steps to Uni for Year 11 and 12 Students will not be sent out to schools but it can be downloaded from the UAC website if needed.
Steps to Uni for Year 10 Students will still be printed and one copy for each Year 10 student will be sent to all NSW schools in early Term 2, as usual.
UAC Digital
LIVE webinar for parents
