The following information has been developed by Australasian
Curriculum, Assessment and Certification Authorities, which includes the SACE Board,
administrator of the SAM program. The details on this page
are subject to change - please contact the university for the latest information.
The Australian Vice Chancellors Committee has established
Academic Links Agreements with a number of European and Asian universities,
to establish the senior secondary qualifications requirements for entry
into undergraduate programs, and the Australian Tertiary Entrance Ranking
(TER) has been developed to ensure the national comparability of Australian
university entrance scores.
