91ÌÒÉ«

EARLY bird applications have closed and more than 41,000* NSW and ACT Year 12 students have so far applied for tertiary study in 2023 through the 91ÌÒÉ« Admissions Centre (91ÌÒÉ«). In addition, more than 18,000 non-Year 12 applicants applied for university – a drop of 12.5 per cent on last year. A breakdown of applicant numbers is below.

Many students have also applied directly to individual universities for study next year to maximise their chances of receiving an offer. 91ÌÒÉ« has processed another 82,094*^{^} undergraduate applications on behalf of individual universities^#.

This brings the total number of undergraduate applications processed by 91ÌÒÉ« to 145,595.

Kim Paino, General Manager of Marketing and Engagement at 91ÌÒÉ« says, ‘It’s not surprising that the non-Year 12 numbers have dropped now that borders are open, and employment is high. Year 12s are still very keen on further study and are looking to utilise the multiple pathways available to them.’

There’s still time to apply - applications for semester 1, 2023 are open until Friday 3 February 2023.

91ÌÒÉ« can apply on 91ÌÒɫ’s website.
