Midyear
entry
at UniSA

If you’ve started university studies and decided the degree isn’t quite right for you, there are options available! If you are a UniSA student, you might want to discuss your options with our Career Services Team, who can assist with finding the right career path for you. 

Once you’ve identified the degree you are now interested in, check the list above to see if there is a midyear intake. If your desired degree does have a midyear intake, you’ll be able to apply to transfer. Its important to note that the application process may change depending on how much study you have been enrolled into.

If you have completed one full time semester in your degree with UniSA (generally 18 units of study) you will have a Grade Point Average (GPA) that you may use to apply. Many UniSA degrees allow a UniSA student to internally transfer through an application with Campus Central. You can view degrees that accept internal transfers on the Campus Central website. If you have not completed one full time semester, you may need to apply through SATAC.

If you are currently studying with another university and would like to transfer to study with UniSA, applications will need to be submitted through SATAC.  

To clarify your situation and to get advice on the correct application process and timelines, contact Future Student Enquiries.

The Special Tertiary Admissions Test (STAT) is organised by SATAC. Midyear STAT sitting dates are usually released by SATAC in mid-April. Once you’ve started an application through the SATAC website, you’ll be able to book in to sit a STAT. Visit the SATAC website for upcoming sitting dates, alternatively contact SATAC on 08 8224 4000.

Leading up to the midyear STAT sittings, UniSA offers a ‘Prepare for STAT’ workshop in May. The workshop will provide information about what to expect when sitting the STAT and strategies for success, so you are as prepared as can be to sit the STAT! You will also get a practice test, so you can implement the strategies you learn to tackle the questions. For more information and to book, visit our website.

If you applied via SATAC to start your studies with UniSA in semester one this year, you will not need to submit a new application. You’ll simply need to log back into your current application on the SATAC website, change your preferences to include your midyear degree, and respond to any offers you were made previously to indicate you wish to be considered for your new, midyear preference(s).

If you didn’t apply for semester one this year, you will need to submit a new SATAC application.

Future Student Enquiries will be able to help you with a breakdown of the process, so don’t hesitate to get in touch for further advice.
