Applications for uni are open

APPLICATIONS for university entry in 2026 open today through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC).

Last year more than 49,800 Year 12 students applied through UAC, selecting from more than 2,800 courses. The most popular fields of study were Society & Culture and Health.

For those not currently in Year 12 but looking to begin a university course mid-year, applications for semester 2, 2025 are also open.

Kim Paino, Interim Managing Director said, ‘As Year 12 students head towards the Term 1 holidays, now is a good time to take care of their university applications before things become even more demanding. They don’t need to finalise their course choices until later in the year but just getting the application submitted now means one less thing to worry about.’
