What is the Bonus Points Scheme?
Local applicants (Australian or New Zealand citizens, or Australian Permanent Residents) holding a recognised Australian year 12 or International Baccalaureate qualification and have obtained a Tertiary Entrance Rank (TER), now referred to as the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR), in 1999 or later, may be eligible for bonus points under the Bonus Points Scheme. Applicants will have bonus points added to their university aggregate if they have successfully completed either Specialist Maths or a Language Other Than English (LOTE). English as a Second Language is not a LOTE. Two bonus points will be given for Specialist Maths and two bonus points for a LOTE subject to a combined maximum of four points, regardless of the number of LOTE subjects studied. The South Australian Tertiary Admissions Centre (SATAC) will automatically add the points. Please note – international applicants who have completed an Australian year 12 and apply through SATAC are eligible for bonus points also.
