Start preparing – ATARs in one week

11 Dec 2024


MORE than 50,000 NSW HSC students will be able to access their Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) from 9am on Wednesday 18 December. The ATAR is the rank used by universities to select school leavers for entry into university courses.

To ensure a smooth experience, students are encouraged to have their NESA student number and UAC PIN ready ahead of time.

Students will be able to access their ATAR online. Students will also be able to access their ATAR as a digital credential in UAC's free digital wallet, CredFolio.

They’ll need to be prepared. Applicants have until 11.59pm on Wednesday 18 December, to change their preferences for December Round 2 offers on 23 December – the first ATAR-based offer round.

If HSC students have specific questions about the calculation of their ATAR, they can call UAC’s ATAR Enquiry Centre on (02) 9119 5012 from 8.30am on 18 December. The centre will also be open on Thursday 19 and Friday 20 December.

For application and general enquiries, students can call UAC Customer Service on (02) 9752 0200 from 8.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday, with extended hours until 6.30pm on 18 December.
