Local and Regional Bonus
The University of Wollongong’s Bonus is for students from high schools within the University’s drawing area, as well as students in regional areas throughout NSW. The Scheme extends the University’s commitment to supporting the students of regional, rural and remote NSW.
Qualifying students will have a UOW course as a preference and complete their HSC the year prior to commencing university at one of the schools in the University’s area, or at a rural or remote school in NSW. Their admissions rank will automatically be increased by three points for all Wollongong preferences.
See below for a complete list of eligible schools.
- Eligibility is based on the school’s postcode, NOT a student’s residential address. Information based on local government boundaries.
- UOW provides UAC with the school names. UAC automatically add 3 bonus points to any student who: selects a preference to study an undergraduate degree at UOW; and who qualifies for an ATAR during the current year at a school on our list.
- Students do not need to apply for the scheme—the bonus points are allocated automatically if the student is eligible.
- The bonus points apply to all of UOW’s undergraduate courses.
- These bonus points are independent of any other bonuses that students may be eligible for, such as the Educational Access Scheme.
