3 unusual facts about Tertiary Entrance Rank


Tertiary Entrance Rank

Although directly equivalent to the Equivalent National Tertiary Entrance Rank (ENTER) in Victoria, and the Universities Admission Index (UAI) in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, the terms ENTER and UAI were only used in their respective states or territories.

The TER was calculated by the Tertiary Institutions Service Centre (TISC) for students who successfully completed the Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) and fulfilled other criteria to qualify for a TER.

Queensland uses a different system called the Overall Position (OP), but conversion tables were published each year to convert the OP to and from an ENTER/TER or UAI.
