The VTAC equity schemes (SEAS) & scholarships covers a range
of access and equity programs. It adjusts a students ATAR in
recognition of circumstances that may have affected their
education.

They may receive additional points depending on their
circumstances. The aggregate points are added to their combined
study scores and their ATAR is recalculated. Use our ATAR
Adjustment Factors Calculator to estimate how they can boost
their ATAR score.

Use our ATAR Calculator to explore the courses students can
study at La Trobe.

The conditional offer becomes a formal offer during the first round
of offers via VTAC in December, provided the student meets all the course and
Aspire ATAR requirements listed on their Aspire Conditional Offer.
To receive an unconditional course offer, students must:

• Meet the standard course prerequisites and any extra
  requirements for their chosen course
• Meet the Aspire ATAR for their course
• Place their Aspire course high in their VTAC preference list

Aspire Academic Impact and Aspire Everyday Impact Conditional
Offers have no ATAR requirement, only prerequisite requirements.

NOTE:

• Aspire offers are only valid for round 1 VTAC offers in December.
• The Aspire ATAR is the raw ATAR.
• Prerequisite study scores are based on raw scores.

For Community Impact applications if a student does not meet the
minimum Aspire ATAR, which is based upon the Raw ATAR, they may
still be eligible for selection through the standard process if their
ATAR is adjusted where they are eligible for Adjustment Factors.

For example, if they receive an Aspire offer for the Bachelor of
Business with an Aspire ATAR requirement of 50 and they receive
an ATAR of 46 – while they would not meet the direct conditions of
their Aspire conditional offer, they may be eligible for adjustment
factors and may still receive an offer for the course through the
regular selection process. Or they can apply for an alternate
pathway option through VTAC.
