Application and enrolment key dates

TAFE Admissions manages applications for many full-time qualifications offered by Western Australian TAFEs.

Not every CR TAFE course uses TAFE Admissions. Short courses, skill sets, apprenticeships, traineeships, online courses, self-paced courses and some part-time options may use a different application process.

Check the relevant course page or visit the Apply page to confirm how to apply for your chosen course.

Competitive courses receive more applications than the number of places available.

Applicants who meet the entry requirements are ranked against the selection criteria. Offers are made to eligible applicants based on that assessment and the places available.

Competitive applications may be assessed using academic achievement and work history.

Academic achievement may include secondary school results or qualifications completed under the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). Work history may include paid employment, volunteer work, community service and work experience.

Supporting evidence may be required. Check your course requirements and prepare the relevant documents before applying.

You can include up to four course preferences in your TAFE Admissions application.

Your first preference should be the course you most want to study. Including suitable alternatives can provide additional pathways into your chosen industry and help you continue moving towards your career goals.

Preferences can generally be changed before the published preference-change deadline.

Review the course page for entry requirements, literacy and numeracy standards, licences, industry prerequisites or other eligibility conditions.

Depending on the course, you may need to provide school reports, WACE or OLNA results, previous qualifications, university results, evidence of English language proficiency or records of employment, volunteer work, community service or work experience.

Check the course requirements and prepare the relevant documents before you apply. This can help avoid delays and give you greater confidence that your application is complete.

Application updates and offers are generally sent electronically.

Check the email address used in your application regularly, including your junk or spam folder. Respond to any requests for information by the stated deadline.

If your preferred course is competitive, consider including other suitable course preferences.

An alternative course may help you build valuable skills, gain industry experience and create new opportunities while working towards your long-term goal.

You may still be able to submit a waitlist application or express interest if applications reopen and places remain available.

Availability depends on the course and intake. Contact the Contact Centre to discuss your options.

TAFE Admissions preferences can generally be changed before the published preference-change deadline.

Check the current intake dates before making changes.
