Equity and Access. The University is proud of the role it plays in equity and access. We are committed to increasing overall participation, and to building on our strong track record of assisting individuals from low socioeconomic backgrounds to enter and succeed in higher education. The University’s primary catchment areas for undergraduate students are characterised by low SES, low levels of participation in the HSC, and low levels of transition to higher education compared with other regions of NSW and Australia. Based on 2006 ABS data, only 40% of Hunter & Central Coast residents continued school beyond Year 10 compared to the national figure of 60%; only 18% of 25-34 year olds in the region obtained a Bachelor level qualification compared to 28% and 26% for NSW and Australia respectively. To build capacity in our region and to meet the challenges the Government has set for the sector, the University has created programs and partnerships with schools and communities to raise awareness and aspirations amongst students, teachers, and families, of the benefits of tertiary education. Evaluations indicate that these outreach initiatives have had impacts at multiple levels. The University of Newcastle is a national leader in equity and access in higher education. Approximately 40,000 students have completed UoN enabling programs since the innovative Open Foundation course began in 1974. Almost 15% of the country’s Commonwealth funded enabling students (EFTSL) study at Newcastle, and 85% of those completing UON enabling programs enrol in higher education. The University’s range of pathways for entry into higher education supports students from a range of backgrounds to succeed in their aspirations to enter a degree: the NewStep program supports students aged 17-20 into higher education, while Open Foundation is aimed at mature-aged students over 20. The Yapug program supports Indigenous students transitioning into university. Complementing this work is UoN’s Equity and Diversity Unit, conducting community outreach, and Newcastle’s framework for analysing student pathways. This tracks all students, identifying the equity group enrolments who do not use enabling programs but who require alternative support.
