Check eligibility

We believe individual strengths are a better indicator of future success than exam scores, which is why we don’t consider ATAR our primary entry requirement.

At Torrens University, we offer the following entry pathways:

• Year 12 certificate: If you have a recent secondary school education and an Australian Year 12 certificate (or equivalent), you will be considered for admission into most of our diplomas and bachelor’s degrees.

  Some courses may require a minimum ATAR score and subject prerequisite. Please check the course pages for specific eligibility criteria.

• Experience, portfolio, interviews: At Torrens University, experience and talent count. That’s why we consider creative portfolios for entry into our Design and Creative Technology degrees and may conduct student interviews for entry into other courses.
