THE RSU DIFFERENCE
You’re more than an RSU

Over 20 years of running the RSU Early Admission program, we've identified four key criteria that tell us you're ready to succeed at university. We'll look beyond your RSU, and ask how you've demonstrated:

  • Academic readiness
  • Motivation and passion
  • Communication and collaboration
  • Planning and persistence

We'll also look at the results you've earned so far in subjects relevant to your chosen course.

I was so relieved to get an Early Admission offer before my HSC. I've never been the best at sitting exams. They make me nervous. I like assessments better and knew that I could do well in those. I was able to use my results to earn the offer I wanted.

“I always wanted to study Early Childhood teaching. It's so important, it sets children up for the future. I applied for Early Admission because I'm someone who likes to plan ahead and be organised. I'd heard about it at school and Discovery Day and I loved knowing what I needed to do to get a uni offer.”

Bachelor of Education - The Early Years

Early Admission helped remove some of the stress I had prior to the HSC. I want to leave this world a better place to live in than when I entered it. If all goes to plan, I should be ‘Dr Andrew Woods’ by the age of 26 which is a crazy thought! All of these amazing opportunities started with RSU, and for that, I am forever grateful.

Bachelor of Social Science (Public Health). Master of Philosophy (Education).

“My school encouraged me to apply for Early Admission. I was excited knowing I had an early offer waiting for me, and I still wanted to work hard get a good HSC mark for myself. Based on my final results I was offered two scholarships and a place in the Dean’s Scholar program.”

Bachelor of Business (Finance) (Dean’s Scholar)
