ANU to launch new admissions model
The Australian National University (ANU) will lead the country in changing the way universities admit students with a new admissions model set to commence in 2020.
Students applying to ANU will have co-curriculum and community contributions recognised as part of their entrance criteria from 2020.
Their scholarship program will be national and take into account outstanding academic results, non-academic achievement and financial need. This means when a student receives an offer to study at ANU they will also know if they have received an offer of accommodation and the outcome of their scholarship application.
How can a careers advisor help you?
The careers office is open every day and can offer all students assistance with:
- Subject selection and/or changes
- Post-school options including courses available at University, Colleges and TAFE
- Work experience
- Resume writing
- Job interviewing Skills
- Gap year options and applications
