Satisfactory Completion of the VCE

The minimum requirement for achieving the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) is the satisfactory completion of 16 units, which must include: 

•  three units from the English group, including a Unit 3–4 sequence 

•  at least three other sequences of Unit 3–4 studies, which can include further sequences from the English group. 

A student must also achieve a 90% attendance rate to satisfy VCE course requirements. 

The Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre (VTAC) advises that satisfactory completion of a scored Unit 3–4 sequence from the English group of studies is required for the calculation of a student’s Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR). 

At Mount Erin, students will normally complete 22 units towards their VCE - 12 units in year 11 (6 sequences) and 10 units in year 12 (5 sequences).
