Our HSC True Reward early offer program will give school leavers much needed peace of mind, providing students with an early offer into most university degrees based on their Year 11* or Year 12 results.
HSC True Reward was first launched in 2017, providing students with an early offer into Western based on HSC results, instead of a scaled ATAR, following analysis showing subject performance is a reliable indicator of student success.
The HSC True Reward program is open to domestic and international NSW HSC students.
*Those that apply using their Year 11 results will need to successfully complete the HSC by achieving a minimum of one Year 12 HSC subject result.
