Rank or ATAR? Which number counts

About studying business & management

Business degrees usually start broad, with subjects such as accounting, finance, marketing and management, before you choose a major. Some majors, such as accounting, have their own professional requirements after the degree.

This describes the field in general, not this course. Check the university's page for what this course covers.

Getting into business & management courses

Selection is primarily ATAR-based. Units 3 and 4 English is the usual prerequisite. Adjustment-factor and non-ATAR pathways are common.

This describes the field in general, not this course. Check the university's page for what this course covers.

These are the lowest rank and the lowest ATAR that got an offer in 2024, not a cut-off or a guarantee. Next year's depends on how many places there are and who applies. How ATARs really work · Didn't get the ATAR you needed?

Do students stay and finish?

Of students who started at UNSW in 2016, nine years later:

Finished a degree
90.4%
Still studying
2%
Left after returning
5.7%
Never came back after first year
1.9%

More recently: of new UNSW bachelor students in 2023, 3% didn't come back to study at any university the following year.

Students are followed if they move: finishing a degree at another university counts as finishing, and moving to another university doesn't count as leaving. Read these alongside the quality measures, not instead of them. Completion and attrition partly reflect who a university enrols – universities serving more regional, mature-age and part-time students naturally run higher attrition without being worse at teaching.

  • 39%Straight from school, on ATAR alone

From the standard student-profile table universities publish for each course's intake. Categories are the national admissions-transparency ones. The university didn't report a breakdown for 61% of this intake (small groups are kept private), so the shares above don't add to 100%.

What it costs, next to what graduates earn

The Australian government sets this rate by field of study, so it is the same at every university in the country – UNSW did not set it and cannot discount it. Your exact total depends on the subjects you pick. Paid through HELP once you're earning, not upfront. How HECS-HELP works
