How to apply

Choose your course

Choosing what to study is a personal choice and we’d encourage you to select what interests you.

When choosing your course, you should consider the following:

  • Admission requirements including any additional requirements such as admissions tests and interviews.
  • Certain courses (such as medicine and other health courses) may also contain inherent requirements that you must meet during your course of study. These requirements will be listed on the course page where relevant.
  • Some courses have earlier closing dates and will be listed on the relevant course pages.

Once you’ve decided on what course you’d like to apply for, note the course name and code for your application. You can find this on the course page under course details. 

Check entry requirements

To be eligible for entry into UWA, you will need to demonstrate that you:

  • Meet the required ATAR or equivalent for your selected course.
  • Meet our English language requirements.
  • Meet additional entry requirements and/or prerequisites for your course. Some majors have certain prerequisites which must be met before you can receive an offer. Check individual major pages for more information.
