What SATAC does

  • SATAC processes applications for many of the courses offered by its participating institutions:

      > TAFE SA
      > Charles Darwin University
      > Flinders University of South Australia
      > The University of Adelaide
      > University of South Australia.
     
  • SATAC assesses the academic and non-academic qualifications presented by applicants and ranks eligible applicants in merit order for each course according to the rules and guidelines provided by the institution offering the course.
     
  • SATAC generates offers based on the number of applicants required to fill each course, as set by the institutions.
     
  • SATAC acts as a 'one-stop shop' for enquiries about the outcomes of applications.
     
  • SATAC administers the Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT) for applicants applying to university under a special entry program and the International Student Admissions Test (ISAT) for international applicants to university. For more information on these tests go to http://www.acer.edu.au/tests/university.html

    SATAC does not decide on the relative merits of different qualifications, exactly how they are assessed or how eligible applicants are ranked. These selection issues are the responsibility of the institution offering each course.
