Wentworth Institute

Australian Year 12 students

Students who have completed an Australian Year 12 or equivalent will be considered for entry into undergraduate courses.

Wentworth Institute recognises that previous academic success is only one indicator of suitability for admission into a course and therefore all students will be interviewed to assess suitability for admission into their chosen program of study.

Applicants with higher education study

Students who have successfully undertaken an undergraduate degree (or equivalent) at a recognised institution will be considered for admission into postgraduate programs. For more information, visit the Wentworth Institute website.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island people

Wentworth Institute is committed to providing higher education pathways for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders who do not have an Australian Year 12 or equivalent may apply to study at Wentworth Institute through a pathway program. In addition, Wentworth Institute has scholarships available specifically for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Domestic applicants with overseas qualifications

Australian citizens or permanent residents with overseas qualifications are assessed after they have provided certified documents for academic achievements (and transcript if relevant).

English language proficiency

Students whose first language is not English must demonstrate competency in the English language. English proficiency can be demonstrated by providing proof of an International English Language Testing System (IELTS) overall test result (or equivalent alternative test result) that meets the specified level of English proficiency denoted for the course.

You will receive information about acceptance and enrolment procedures with your letter of offer, which will be posted and emailed to you within seven days of your attending the application interview.

Advanced standing

Wentworth Institute will recognise prior learning, and grant credit for that learning, provided it is relevant, current and equivalent to the learning required for Wentworth Institute’s academic programs and courses, and in accordance with the Advanced Standing and Credit Transfer Policy and Procedure. For more information, visit the Wentworth Institute website.
