  • How to apply (domestic students)

    The application process outlined below is for domestic applicants only. If you are an international student, please follow the enrolment steps for international students.

    How to enrol for a place at University Senior College

    1. Application form. Complete the application form and return it with the application fee of $100 (GST inclusive and non-refundable) to USC.
    2. Your interview. On receipt of the application form the Enrolment Officer will make contact to arrange a time for the student, with at least one parent or guardian, to attend an interview on campus. During the interview, subject choices will be discussed, and you’ll be asked to complete a short aptitude test and essay. You’ll need to bring your current and previous year's school reports. Without these, the enrolment process cannot be finalised.
    3. Your offer of enrolment. Shortly after the interview, you’ll be notified whether your application for enrolment has been successful. If it is successful, you’ll be offered a place at USC. You can secure your enrolment by completing the USC enrolment forms and returning them to the College with the enrolment fee of $300 (also not refundable) within two weeks of the receipt of the offer.
    4. Orientation. You are expected to attend an orientation program, which takes place during the week prior to the commencement of formal lessons. You can see your campus, meet other new students and settle in before you start.
    5. Transition lectures. If you’re enrolled for Year 12 or 13, you are required to attend the transition lectures held at the end of the current year for the subjects you intend to study in the following year at USC. A program is distributed during Term 4.
