You've got the passion, we've got the hands-on courses. If you're ready for what's next, choose RMIT for your VTAC preference.
We’re here to help and guide you through your RMIT journey, no matter where you’re at. Explore our hands-on courses and discover the steps to making your VTAC preference count.
Choosing what you want to study can be a difficult and overwhelming decision, but the first step is to explore what courses are available. RMIT offers both vocational and undergraduate courses, and with over 350 qualifications to choose from, there’s a course for everyone.
The courses that you find here could inform your VTAC preference selections, so keep them in mind when the time comes.
It can be difficult to decide what career you might like from the course alone. Our career guides explore what your chosen profession involves, what working in the field is like, and detail clear steps to reach your ideal job - with input from RMIT experts working in the field.

Once you’ve narrowed down your top courses, make sure you check the course entry requirements and prerequisites, which can be found on the RMIT course page.
Some courses have a specific ATAR requirement or a selection task, while others require you to have completed certain VCE subjects.
Most undergraduate courses require a specific ATAR in order to be eligible for admission.
While studying, it's easy to focus on getting a perfect ATAR, but that's an easy way to get burnt out. Rather than focusing on a specific number, you should aim to do your best to get into your dream course. Even if you don't get the ATAR you wanted, there are still plenty of ways to start studying at uni.
Some courses may require a selection task, such as a portfolio or interview. It's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the selection task requirements so you can prepare in advance for your submission.
Pathways usually begin with an associate degree, diploma or advanced diploma and guarantee your entry into further study*, often with credit and a reduced duration for your destination course, whether that be a higher level vocational qualification, or an undergraduate degree.
As a dual-sector university, we offer Australia’s largest range of Pathways via an integrated system of progression between our high-quality qualifications, all at the one university.
Pathways can help you achieve your study goals, even if you don’t meet the entry requirements for your ideal course. They are also an excellent way to gain additional credentials and experience during your study journey.
*Guaranteed entry is dependent on successful completion of the preceeding courses in the pathway. In some cases you will need to successfully complete and meet other specific requirements such a minimum GPA, to be guaranteed entry to the undergraduate degree.
As the year progresses, keep in mind the key VTAC preference selection dates, then the Change of Preference dates later in the year. Change of Preference gives you a chance to alter your course preferences before receiving an official offer from a university.
