Each University of Newcastle degree has a set of entry requirements that you must meet before you can enrol. This includes both academic requirements and skills in English. The entry requirements for each degree offered by the University of Newcastle can be found on the individual degree information page.
Once you have selected the degree you wish to study, you should apply directly to the University of Newcastle online through the Year 12 Early Entry program or Direct Entry for non-school leavers, or through the Universities Admissions Centre (UAC).
There are two main intakes each year for undergraduate programs:
- The major intake period for all undergraduate programs is Semester 1 (usually starts in February/March each year).
- Some programs are available in Semester 2 (or mid-year which usually starts in late July each year).
We recommend exploring our Getting in pages, where you can discover the entry options, valuable tips, and advice that applies to your situation.
