What are Regional Adjustment Factors?

For example, if you get an ATAR of 87 plus five adjustment factors, you can add the two together and apply for a course with a selection rank of 92.
Subject adjustment factors are available to both international and domestic students.

Regional Adjustment Factors apply to all courses, except the Bachelor of Clinical Science (Medicine)/Doctor of Medicine (MD), Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Music (Dean’s Scholar), Bachelor of Creative Industries (Music), Bachelor of Music/Bachelor of Creative Industries, and Bachelor of Physiotherapy.
