Early Entry Programs  

Congratulations to our many successful Year 12 students who have been recognised for their community contribution and skills through early entry programs. Many tertiary institutions are using more than ATAR for selection. At La Trobe University, ACU, Swinburne, RMIT and VU, students that demonstrate school or community involvement, employability skills and/or good Year 11 results, can apply for early entry. If successful, students are guaranteed entry with a lower ATAR.    

Tertiary Scholarships  

One Ave Maria College student applying for University of Melbourne in 2024 will receive $5000. Another two Year 12 students, who apply for VU Guaranteed, will be eligible for $2000 each.  Year 11 students also have the opportunity to receive $500 toward their Year 12 studies by applying for the VU Guaranteed scholarship.
