It would be good to provide more information, such as the ATAR range that you consider low, the degree(s) that you are interested in and the university offering this degree(s). This is because there may be other relevant factors that can impact your chances of receiving an offer. These include adjustment factors that can be applied to your selection rank based on elements such as favourable performance in specific eligible HSC subjects and the area where you live. They also include early entry schemes that you can apply for, which can allow you to receive an offer for your desired degree(s), either through a reduced ATAR requirement or without the requirement of achieving a minimum ATAR altogether.

However, if we were to only consider ATAR-based admission without any adjustment factors, then an ATAR that is lower than the ATAR/lowest selection rank advertised for a degree is unlikely to secure an offer for that degree. If you are concerned that your ATAR will not be sufficiently high to meet the requirement of your chosen degree(s), there are alternative pathways other than those I mentioned above, including:
  • Enrolling in a different degree, then transferring to your dream degree after a year based on university results
  • Enrolling in a diploma program (whether at TAFE or university) then progressing to the equivalent university degree, e.g. Diploma of Business → Bachelor of Business.
I hope this helps! :D
