What is an ATAR (Australian Tertiary Admission Rank)?
NSW and ACT Year 12 students will this year receive an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) to determine their entry to university. The ATAR has replaced the Universities Admission Index (UAI). The rank shows how well a student performed in the HSC compared to other students and is based on overall marks. Each degree has a set number of places with a miniumum ATAR for entry, which is the ATAR of the last person admitted to the degree.
