Monash and Melbourne Entry Schemes for 2024 Entry

Monash Entry Schemes – Domestic Students


At Monash, we know that a student’s ATAR might not accurately reflect their ability. Life can
be a bumpy road, and there are all sorts of circumstances that can get in the way of a
student’s academic achievement.
We offer two schemes – the Monash Guarantee and the Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS)
– that can help students enter their preferred course, even if their ATAR is below the lowest
selection rank.

By having two schemes, Monash wants to create a level playing field for everyone who
aspires to an exceptional education. By operating both schemes, Monash can also help as
many students as possible reach their full potential.

Students do not have to choose between the two schemes – depending on their situation
and background, they could be eligible for one or both.

Monash and Melbourne Entry Pathways 2024


1. The Monash Guarantee
The Monash Guarantee can get a student into a Monash course even if they do not reach
the course’s lowest selection rank. Students could be eligible for the Monash Guarantee if
they:

• have experienced financial disadvantage


• live in a low socio-economic area
• are an Indigenous Australian
• attend a Monash list under-represented school

Nearly every Monash undergraduate degree has a Monash Guarantee ATAR, which is lower
than the expected selection rank for that course. For most courses, if a student meets
the eligibility criteria, achieves the Monash Guarantee ATAR (starting at 70.00), and
completes all course prerequisites, they will be eligible for a place at Monash.

Exceptions include:
• Entry to the Bachelor of Medical Science and Doctor of Medicine is based on a
combination of ATAR, UCAT, and interview. Students cannot be guaranteed an offer
for this course.
• Health courses may also have restrictions due to clinical placements.
• The Monash Guarantee does not apply to the Scholars programs or Indigenous entry
courses.

To be considered for the Monash Guarantee, Year 12 students must submit a VTAC course
application, complete a Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS) application, including
Category 1, and submit any required documentation.

Find out more at The Monash Guarantee.

2. Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS)


SEAS adjusts a student’s ATAR in recognition of circumstances that may have affected their
education. This gives students a better chance of getting an offer for the course they want.
Students receive ATAR-related adjustments depending on the severity of their
circumstances. The adjustments are made to their combined study scores and their ATAR is
recalculated. Monash then uses this adjusted ATAR for selection into a course.

SEAS is applied for through the VTAC application process.

Find out more at Monash SEAS.
