Educational Access Scheme
The University acknowledges and provides consideration for applicants who have experienced educational disadvantage. Applicants applying for internal study (on-campus) can apply for consideration under the Education Access Scheme (EAS) administered by the Universities Admission Scheme and Queensland Tertiary Admission Centre.
Bonus Points
Through the EAS Scheme, UNE provides bonus points to an applicant’s selection rank. This means the applicant’s rank, if successful, increases and the applicant then competes with all other applicants for a place in their course. The bonus points are added to increase an applicant’s rank. It does not change your UAI / OP.

Applicants must follow the procedures outlined by UAC and submit their application by the prescribed date.
Applicants applying through UAC can obtain an application from UAC or the Student Centre (1800 818 865). Information is available at: http://www.uac.edu.au/equity/eas.html
