Frequently asked questions
- Is 97.70 the ATAR my child needs for Bachelor of Dental Science at CSU?
- Not exactly. 97.70 was the lowest selection rank that received an offer for the 2026 intake. A selection rank is the ATAR plus any adjustment factors (for example subject, equity or regional adjustments), so some students were offered a place with a raw ATAR below 97.70. It is a guide to competition for that intake, not a guaranteed entry score, and it changes each year.
- Has the rank for Bachelor of Dental Science at CSU gone up or down?
- It rose 7.80 between the 2024 intake (89.90) and the 2026 intake (97.70). Across the 2 published intakes listed here it ranged from 89.90 (2024) to 97.70 (2026).
