Our website has information on each course offered. You can explore this at www.ac.edu.au/awards. Some courses have specific pre-requisites so be sure to check out the Admissions Requirements or Course of Study Handbook before you apply.

What is a certified document?

A certified (notarized) document is a copy of an original document, such as a birth certificate, academic transcript or proof of identity, that has been authorised (or stamped) as being a true copy of an original.

In order to process any admission applications, our Application Officers will need to receive a certified copy of your identification documents (e.g. passport/birth certificate) and any academic documents (e.g. transcript). If you have completed previous study at AC, you are not required to certify your academic documents.

Who can certify my documents?

There is a wide range of authorised occupations and office holders who may certify a document both within and outside of Australia. These include Accountants, Bank Managers, Barristers, Ministers/Clergymen, Police Officers or School Principals.

To obtain certified copies of your documents, you will need to take both an original and a photocopied version of the document to an appropriate authorised person. They will certify that the photocopy is a true copy of the original. The certification should include a statement such as "This is a true copy of the original document sighted by me" and include the name and address, contact phone number, profession or occupation of the person who certifies the documentation and date signed.

Once you have chosen your course of study, you will need to apply direct to AC. Applications typically close 3 weeks before semester commences.

All AC application forms are completed online and available here. There are different forms depending on the level of study you are applying for and the location of your course. If you are unsure about which application to complete, our Future Students team can guide you in the right direction.

Non award or cross institutional students may bypass the Application for Admission and complete the electronic enrolment form.

Additional Information

If you are an Australian high school leaver applying for study at AC, you will be considered on the basis of your academic ATAR/OP or equivalent, together with your Statement of Results sheet. AC is not linked with a Tertiary Admissions Centre and therefore you will need to forward copies of these documents directly to us.

Individual support is available for any questions you might have about your application.

Your application will be assessed by one of AC’s Application Officers. They will respond to you via email within 2-4 working days, either with a request for more information or a Letter of Offer.

Some courses may require additional entry requirements such as an audition or interview. If required, you will be notified accordingly.

Where necessary, AC verifies the authenticity and Australian equivalence of overseas qualifications through Australian Education International (AEI – NOOSR) within the Department of Education.

Letter of Offer

Successful applicants will be issued a Letter of Offer into your chosen AC course of study. To accept your offer of placement, you will need to return a signed copy (digital signatures accepted) to the Applications Officer assigned to you.

Alternatively, at this time you can accept your place into the course but defer your commencement date. Placements can be deferred up to one year, after which your offer will expire and you will be required to complete a new application for admission.

Once you have returned a signed copy of your Letter of Offer to accept your place at AC, you will be invited to enrol in your specific subjects in the next academic period via an electronic enrolment form. Information on upcoming subject schedules can be found here.
