Arts Start

If you are considering starting an Arts degree in March 2012, you'll find everything you need to know here.

Arts Start has details about the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, and about courses and resources available to you as a prospective student or a parent of a prospective student. There is also advice on what to do:

  • before you get your offer-with important dates, ATAR, and course information and advice, and
  • after you get your offer-including how to accept your offer, enrol and choose your subjects.

For more general information about studying at the University, visit the main University of Sydney START website

Non-year 12 Applicants

If you are a non-year 12 applicant, you still apply for entry to university through the University Admissions Centre. For more information please see the UAC website.

This applies to you if:

  • you did not attempt an Australian Year 12 qualification or International Baccalaureate (IB) in Australia in 2011
  • you are attempting a Queensland Year 12 external student qualification, or a New Zealand National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) Level 3 qualification
  • you received an offer through UAC last year and were granted deferment.
