We want to ensure our best and brightest students stay in the region. An additional 1 OP or 3 Tertiary Entrance Rank points will be awarded for graduating Year 12 at one of the below schools.
Adjustment factors may increase your Selection Rank, through the allocation of additional points in certain circumstances, such as where you live, and subjects you passed. Discover if any adjustment factors may apply to you to gain a place in your preferred degree. USQ limits applicable adjustment factors to a maximum of 4 OP points or 10 tertiary entrance Ranks.
You do not have to apply for these adjustment factors – they will be automatically applied by QTAC at the time you are assessed.
USQ recognises academic excellence and ensures students who achieve an OP 1-5, and who meet all other admission criteria are guaranteed entry into any of USQ programs. This is automatically applied to your USQ preferences.
USQ awards additional points for passing certain Senior subjects and university courses. As a current Year 12 student, you can be awarded 1 OP or 2 Tertiary Entrance Ranks adjustments per applicable year 12 subject, and 1 OP or 2 Tertiary Entrance Rank points for each USQ Head Start subject successfully completed.
