Improving the Transparency of Higher Education Admissions: Joint Higher Education Sector and Australian Government Implementation Plan

Improving the Transparency of Higher Education Admissions: Joint Higher Education Sector and Australian Government Implementation Plan

Department of Education and Training Australia
0/5 ( ratings)
In October 2016, following extensive consultation with higher education and secondary education stakeholders, the Higher Education Standards Panel released its report Improving the Transparency of Higher Education Admissions. The HESP made 14 recommendations intended to:

- achieve greater transparency through the use of common language about admissions processes and the publication of consistent information
- widen the accessibility of information to prospective students
- improve the comparability of information available from providers about their admissions processes and entry criteria
- enhance the accountability of higher education providers for the information they publish about their admissions policies
- ensure all higher education providers are subject to the same reporting requirements
- give students, parents, teachers and career advisors the knowledge and capacity to more easily navigate higher education admissions policies and processes.

The recommendations include changes to the way the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank and other academic requirements are presented; as well as the need for clearer, easier to understand information about the wide range of different application and assessment pathways into higher education for school leavers, mature age students and others seeking entry.

This plan sets out the objectives and timeframes agreed to by key stakeholders in the Australian higher education sector to implement the HESP's recommendations.
