General Achievement Test (GAT) for 2009  Middle-Band selection

From 2009, all La Trobe courses selecting primarily on the basis of ENTER will give consideration to GAT results for applicants with ENTERs in the Middle-Band.

This means if you’re a VTAC applicant to a La Trobe course, you’ll have the opportunity to authorise VTAC to obtain your GAT results from the Victorian  Curriculum and Assessment Authority. We’d encourage you to give this authorisation, as it may slightly increase your chances of selection – and it can’t disadvantage you.

Basically, applicants with a good GAT score may be ranked up, and therefore receive an offer the University wouldn’t otherwise make. However, no applicant will be ranked down because of a poor GAT score.
