Is the 94.7 ATAR cutoff a guarantee of a place?

No. A cutoff is the ATAR (or selection rank) of the last student offered a place in a given year, so it is a guide, not a guarantee. It moves year to year with demand, and adjustment factors or an access scheme can lift a student's selection rank above their raw ATAR. Always check UAC and the Australian Catholic University course page for the current year.

What if my child's ATAR is below 94.7?

A lower ATAR rarely closes a career permanently. Adjustment factors, early or guaranteed entry, a TAFE-to-university pathway, an enabling program, or starting a related degree and transferring can all lead to the same place. See our guide to pathways when the result is lower than hoped.
