Pathways are all about

options. There are many

ways to and through

university. This guide will

help you find a pathway

that suits you best.

This guide is for anyone interested in

applying to an undergraduate degree at

La Trobe University, including those who

have, or haven’t, finished high school, TAFE

students and mature-age applicants. It’s also

for people who want to transfer to La Trobe

from another university, or even transfer

courses within La Trobe.

It is relevant to local applicants (Australian

and New Zealand citizens, permanent

residents of Australia, applicants in Australia

with refugee status), and international

applicants currently studying English,

Foundation Studies, Year 12 or post-

secondary studies in Australia.

The best way to use this guide is in

conjunction with our undergraduate course

guides, which provide details on all our

undergraduate courses, including costs,

scholarships, industry experience, overseas

study, accommodation and life at La Trobe in

general. There are separate guides for local

and international applicants.

Course Guide 2014, visit:

Undergraduate Guide 2014, visit:

You’ve finished Year 12 …

… and received the required ATAR

If your course application is successful,

VTAC will send you an Offer Letter with

instructions on how to accept an offer

and enrol.

For more information, visit:

latrobe.edu.au/students/new-students

… but did not receive the ATAR required

for entry into your preferred course

You may be eligible for credit if you:

■

enrol in a La Trobe course your ATAR

allows, then transfer to your original

choice (see page 3)

■

enrol in TAFE, then transfer to a

La Trobe course (see pages 5 - 23)

■

enrol in a single subject. This way you’ll

find out if a study area interests you

while gaining credit towards a future

application (see page 4)

■

enrol in a diploma at La Trobe Melbourne

and transfer into the second year of

a La Trobe course (subject to results),

see pages 4 and 18 for more information.

… and you’d like to defer your start

If you’re offered a La Trobe course and

want to defer your studies, you may

be granted deferral for up to a year

or more. Make sure you complete the

deferral form so your place is waiting for

you at the end of your deferral.

Please note: although this pathway is

available for most courses, there are a

few exceptions.

For more information, visit:

latrobe.edu.au/students/new-students/

accept/defer

Whether or not you’ve finished Year 12

Don’t worry if you haven’t finished Year 12.

You have options:

Enrol at TAFE

Doing a TAFE course may

allow you to transfer to

a La Trobe course with

eligibility for credit. We have

articulation agreements

with many post-secondary

institutions, so you know

how much credit you’ll get

in advance (see pages 5 - 23).

Use your work experience

Apply for our Work

Recognition Program,

which takes your work

experience into account

instead of formal academic

qualifications (see page 4).

Enrol in a single subject

or our Tertiary Enabling

Program

■

Enrol in a single subject.

Doing a single subject at

La Trobe allows you to find

out if an area of study suits

you. You may also gain

credit for a future course

application (see page 4).

■

Apply for our Tertiary

Enabling Program, which

runs for 18 weeks and gives

you a strong foundation

of skills to help with your

future course application

(see page 4).

Complete a Diploma at

La Trobe Melbourne

You can go directly into the

second year of a La Trobe

course by completing

a diploma at La Trobe

Melbourne subject to results

(see pages 4 and 18 for

more information).

(5)

You’re enrolled in a

La Trobe course …

You’re enrolled at

another uni …

… and changed your mind about the course you’re in

Once you have commenced your course, you can apply to

transfer to another La Trobe course using our Application

for Course Transfer form.

Please note: not all courses allow for transfer.

For more information, visit:

latrobe.edu.au/school/apply/pathways/transfer

… and found a La Trobe course that better suits your needs

Apply to transfer to La Trobe through VTAC as a Non-Year 12

applicant. You may also be eligible for credit for your previous

studies (see page 5). Apply direct to the University for

mid-year entry.

For more information, visit:

latrobe.edu.au/school/apply/pathways/transfer

Mature-age applicants

You’re unsure about

which course to do

We understand the need to balance life’s commitments

with study, so we offer flexible study options and plenty of

support to mature-age students (21 years and older), including

childcare facilities on or near most of our campuses.

If you’re not over 21, you can still apply – it just means you’re

registered as a Non-Year 12 applicant.

For different pathways into uni as a mature-age student see

page 4 in this guide.

For more information, visit:

latrobe.edu.au/mature-age

If you’re unsure what you want to specialise in you can

enrol in a general degree and specialise later. Some degrees

have a ‘common first year’, where you’ll study subjects with

students from other degrees, giving you a sample of different

specialisations (e.g. Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of

Business).

WoRk REcoGnITIon PRoGRAm

Our Work Recognition Program (WRP) is the

first of its kind in Victoria. It’s designed to

help students (21 years of age or older) enter

university for the first time, whether or not

you’ve completed Year 12.

It takes into account your work experience

to date and you’re not required to have any

formal academic qualifications. All you need

is a minimum of 12 months’ full-time paid

employment since completing high school.

The WRP is an alternative entry method to

the Special Tertiary Admissions Test (see

right).

The program is available for admission into

the following La Trobe courses:

§

Bachelor of Arts

§

Bachelor of Business

§

Bachelor of Social Sciences.

You can apply for the WRP if you:

§

are 21 years of age or older on 1 January

of the year you intend to start tertiary

study

§

have a minimum of 12 months’ full-time

paid employment since completing high

school.

For more information, see:

will help you develop the academic skills

and confidence you need to get going. The

program is offered in Albury-Wodonga,

Bendigo, Mildura, Shepparton and

Broadmeadows in partnership with

local TAFEs.

You’ll complete four subjects as part

of the TEP:

§

Introduction to Social Science

certain campuses.

requirements and campuses, visit:

SPEcIAL TERTIARY ADmISSIonS

TEST (STAT)

*

The STAT is an aptitude test. La Trobe only

accepts the Multiple Choice version of

the STAT, which consists of 70 questions

designed to assess a range of competencies

considered important for success in tertiary

study.

You’ll have to sit the STAT if you don’t

have an academic record (VCE/HSC or

equivalent) and you’re applying through our

Mature-Age Special Entry Scheme (apart

from our Work Recognition Program). Our

Work Recognition Program (see left) is an

alternative to the STAT.

You might choose to sit the STAT even if

you have an academic record. Some people

do this to supplement their application.

Everyone is different, so we strongly

encourage you to speak with a selection

officer before you decide. We also offer

STAT preparatory courses at some of our

campuses.

You register to sit a STAT through VTAC

or UAC.

Contact our Future Students Centre for more

Enrolling in single subjects is a great way to

find out whether a particular area of study

is right for you, and it can also boost your

confidence for further uni studies.

While completion of single subjects doesn’t

guarantee admission into an undergraduate

course – you’ll still be required to apply

separately for an undergraduate degree

– a strong performance can help your

application. You may also be eligible to

receive credit (Advanced Standing) for the

subject/s you successfully complete.

You may choose this pathway to enhance

your qualifications if you’re working and

don’t plan to enrol in a course.

credit towards an undergraduate degree,

depending on the studies you’ve completed.

Some La Trobe courses grant credit for

specific subjects, others for an entire year or

a set number of subjects or credit points.

As a general guide, each university subject is

usually worth 15 credit points and one year

of full-time studies usually comprises eight

subjects or 120 credit points.

If you’ve studied at a post-secondary

institution that isn’t listed in these pages,

you may still be eligible for credit. For more

Once you’ve found the

La Trobe course that’s right

process depends on what

type of applicant you are

and when you apply.

cHEckLIST

§

speak to your teachers, career advisers or

family and friends about what you’d like to

do at uni

§

speak to people who work in your chosen

industry to get an idea of what it’s really like

§

go to events for future students (see inside

back cover), and talk with La Trobe advisers,

teaching staff and students

§

find out more about your chosen course

in La Trobe’s Undergraduate Course Guide

2014 or at:

latrobe.edu.au/courses

§

meet the prerequisites for a pathway into

your chosen course.

For more information, visit:

latrobe.edu.au/study

mID-YEAR EnTRY

To apply for mid-year entry, visit our

mid-year entry webpage for key dates and

a link to our online application. Applications

usually open in March and close in late July.

Please note: not all courses offer mid-year

entry. Find out more at:

latrobe.edu.au/courses

LocAL APPLIcAnTS

Local applicants seeking entry in first

semester (February 2014) should apply

online through VTAC or UAC. Their websites

will guide you through the application

process and let you know about the

information you need to provide.

Applications for 2014 open at 9 am on

Monday 5 August 2013 and close at 5 pm on

Friday 27 September 2013. Late applications

are accepted until early December each year,

but conditions and fees usually apply.

See the relevant website for key dates.

Victorian applicants:

vtac.edu.au

Interstate applicants applying to

Albury-Wodonga and Mildura Campuses:

uac.edu.au

VTAC Personal Statement

You'll need to complete and submit a

VTAC Personal Statement if you wish

other information to be considered during

the selection process. This may include

information such as work experience or

reason for applying. You may wish to provide

application.

Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS)

entry programs to help you gain entry

InTERnATIonAL APPLIcAnTS

International applicants can read about

application procedures, download an

international undergraduate application form

or apply online at:

latrobe.edu.au/international/apply

There are usually no deadlines for international

applicants seeking entry in 2014. If a course

has a closing date for applications, it will be

specified in the course description at:

latrobe.edu.au/courses

Please note: some courses have limited

places and are subject to a quota, so apply

as early as you can.

If you haven’t yet finished your post-secondary

studies, La Trobe may make you a conditional

offer subject to completion with a specific

grade point average.

We strongly advise you check the La Trobe

International website for further important

information about the application

process, including provision of academic

qualifications and results, student visas,

English-language requirements, refund

policies and other key details.

For more information on the application

process, please contact La Trobe International:

T 03 9627 4805.

SELEcTIon

Selection for most courses is based on your

academic achievement. In some cases,

La Trobe also considers other factors or

requirements for specific courses. These

might include a folio or interview.

It’s important to note entry is competitive,

so you’re not necessarily guaranteed a

place in your chosen course on the basis of

meeting academic requirements or having

done post-secondary studies. This is another

reason why it’s a good idea to get as much

information as you can about your chosen

course before you apply.
