It also considers the academic ability, motivation and experience of the applicant.

Even though all courses will clearly state their entry criteria, yet sometimes the university offers admission to students below the normal points range in exceptional circumstances. Such cases either have evidence that the applicant’s grades may have been affected by individual circumstances or in relation to performance at an interview and/or extension. On the other hand, where courses require interviews, portfolio submission or auditions as part of their selection criteria, the admissions committee will make this explicit to applicants. It will provide details on how the interviews will be conducted and the criteria used to select successful candidates. Do note that written tests may be included in the interview process where interviews are required as part of the admissions procedure for a course.
