QTAC Application – Course Preference Checklist

Have you submitted your QTAC application? The on-time due date is 30^th September 2016 (during the upcoming school holidays).

Did you use the ‘desired – back-up – pathway’ plan when organising your preferences? For information about this plan and how to order your preferences, visit: http://www.qtac.edu.au/applications/apply-here/preferences. Your sixth preference should be one that you have a very good chance of gaining entry to, given its previous cut-off and your results. You also need to check the major offer round dates of your preferences and make changes if the dates differ (preferences need to be chronologically organised according to the major offer round). Courses you are offered in early offer rounds can be conditionally accepted and your preferences can be changed for future offer rounds if necessary.

Have you deleted all wasted courses? Wasted courses include those that:

• You do not meet the entry requirements.
• You would not do if you were offered them.
• Are full fee or located in regional centres that you have not consulted your parents/guardians about.
• Are too difficult or impossible to commute to given where you live.
• Are very competitive and you list them below much less competitive courses.
