You should have registered for a MyQCE - Student Portal Account. You were asked to do this at the end of Year 10, reminded again in Year 11 & in Year 12. This is where you can see your Year 12 results to date.
Be sure to save a copy of your PASSWORD. A personal email should have been used to set this account up as your Nudgee email is terminated when you finish on 17 November 2023.
ATAR is the primary mechanism used nationally for tertiary admissions and indicates a student’s position relative to other students. It is the standard measure of a student’s overall academic achievement in relation to other students where those students have studied different subject combinations.
ATARS are expressed as a number on a 2000-point scale from 99.95 down to 0.00 in steps of 0.05. So the highest ATAR is 99.95, then 99.90, then 99.85, and so on, down to 0.00. ATARS below 30 are reported as ‘30.00 or less.
Check out the pdf version of the QTAC Guide. If you want a hard/paper copy, pop in to see Mrs Scott in the Study Room - L1.0.
It is your responsibility to get a USI. If you are on an ATAR pathway, don't do any certs and plan to go on to tertiary study, YOU WILL NEED A USI. If you don't have one yet, make this a priority. It only takes a moment to do!
You will need to use one piece of identification from the list to the right to create your USI.

QTAC for 2025 Year 12 School leavers opened 01 AUGUST, 2024.
There is no hurry to apply. Your successful application is based on ACHIEVEMENT & MERIT. It is not based on first in, first served.
BUT, it would be good to make a start so that we can help you if you get stuck.
QTAC Applications are now open for the new admissions period, and the application process is all done online.
You cannot change your preferences after the final date for the respective offer round. But you can change your preferences up to three times, even after you receive your ATAR.
Participation in early offer rounds is at the discretion of each institution.
The Educational Access Scheme (EAS) can help you if you have experienced financial or personal circumstances that negatively affected your most recent studies.
If you are eligible for EAS, you may get adjustments to your selection rank to help you to get into a course, and/or financial assistance from institutions.
The Elite Athlete Adjustment Scheme considers the impact of an applicant’s sporting demands on their educational outcomes in the past 2 years. Elite athletes, coaches, and referees applying through QTAC to eligible courses offered by Griffith University, Queensland University of Technology and University of the Sunshine Coast may be eligible to receive adjustments to their selection rank or ATAR via this scheme.
Individual institution rules and considerations apply.
The Elite Athlete Adjustment Scheme is an application for rank adjustments only. It is not an application for a scholarship or other elite athlete support. Applications for scholarships and other elite athlete support must be made separately and directly to the institution. Please visit the institution’s websites for more information and to apply.
The Rural Access Scheme exists to recognise the challenges that are often faced by students from Rural and Remote backgrounds.
For a select number of courses through CQUniversity, Griffith University, The University of Queensland and University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSc), a number of places are allocated to applicants who are from Rural and Remote backgrounds to study as part of the Rural Access Scheme.
For QUT you will be provided with an adjustment to most courses if you are currently living in Rural and Remote areas of Australia.
Regional preference schemes
Some institutions give you ATAR/rank adjustment for being a local resident, or for living in a regional or remote area. Institutions adjust your ATAR/selection rank for entry, which can make you more competitive.
