SEAS categories and participating institutions

Which institutions recognise SEAS?

There are four categories within the Special Entry Access Scheme (SEAS). They cover personal information and location, disadvantaged financial background, disability or medical condition and difficult circumstances. Category 1 has seven subcategories.

The table below provides an overview of the categories recognised by participating institutions for 2023 applications.

Other special consideration programs

Several institutions offer their own special consideration programs. These provide special consideration for entry into courses in addition to, or instead of, SEAS consideration. To find information about these other programs, visit Special consideration schemes by institution.
