Australian Year 12

The Australian Year 12 besides being taken by Australian students and PRs, is opened to International Students who would like a more recognised university entry pathway.

Students who are looking at undergraduate programs which have a high entry requirement and/or have limited places, should take this program instead of Foundation courses as Foundation programs may not necessary be recognised for university entry in some of the more prestigious universities world wide.

The Year 12 program is taught in ONE YEAR starting from January till the November exams with the results being released in Mid December so that students are able to start universities studies in February. This is because some courses only have a February intake.

A Senior Certificate of Secondary Education in Australia

This is a formal certificate known by different names as follows:

 

STATE / TERRITORY SENIOR SECONDARY CERTIFICATE OF EDUCATION
Australian Capital Territory (ACT) ACT Year 12 Certificate
New South Wales (NSW) Higher School Certificate (HSC)
Northern Territory (NT) Northern Territory Certificate of Education (NTCE)
Queensland (QLD) Senior Certificate
South Australia (SA) South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE)
Tasmania (TAS) Tasmanian Certificate of Education (TCE)
Victoria (VIC) Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE)
Western Australia (WA) WA Certificate of Education (WACE)

 

Students with a Senior Certificate of Secondary Education have more choices, and they may decide to:
  • start work,
  • begin a VTE program,
  • progress directly to university studies.

Some schools offer foundation programs to international students instead of a senior certificate. This normally provides entry to specific universities.

Student Ranking

Students who seek admission to higher education and universities are provided with a tertiary entrance score or rank. A student’s rank:

  • is calculated in each State & Territory with its own name and system. For example, in Queensland it is called the Overall Position (OP) Score.
  • is based on the grades achieved through school assessment and the final exam marks.
  • is used by the higher education authorities to determine if the student meets the admission requirements for its courses.
