Alternative Entry Pathways Sample Clauses

Alternative Entry Pathways. The University has extended its suite of alternative entry pathways to improve access for students whose academic performance has been impacted by lack of resources in their school and/or home environment. Broadway UWA is a scheme whereby students from a range of low-SES schools, identified primarily on the basis of an ICSEA score, with an ATAR of between 75 and the University’s standard admission cut-off of 80, are made an offer and provided with additional supports to ensure their successful transition.

Applications are reviewed by committee on a case-by-case basis with students admitted by this pathway also offered a comprehensive support program on enrolment. Likewise, support is provided to students admitted through the Mature-age Access pathway, open to students without prior tertiary education experience. There has been steadily increasing interest in access by this pathway since its inception in 2008 which provides a second-chance at tertiary education via provisional entry until students have successfully completed 24 credit points of their degree. All students admitted by any of the alternative entry pathways are selected on their potential to succeed and a substantial range of student support services are provided. This approach is reflected in the good outcomes a...
