Special Entry Access Schemes
SEAS is the VTAC umbrella program for all Special Entry schemes conducted by participating Victorian universities.
If you meet SEAS eligibility criteria, the SEAS application process allows a small number of additional points to be added to your ENTER score. The number of additional points is determined by the SEAS categories that match your circumstances.
You apply to SEAS through VTAC. Please note that if you meet criteria for more than one SEAS category, you need to complete a separate application form for each.
