How to Apply to Study at UTS Through the Official Website

Start at uts.edu.au and use the How to apply link in the Popular Links section of the homepage. That is the official entry point for applications. Before you apply, use Find a course to choose your course and confirm its admission requirements, because the application path differs for local and international students. If anything is unclear, contact UTS directly for application guidance rather than relying on third-party sites.

Step 1: Find your course first

Applying without a chosen course makes the process harder, since requirements are course-specific.

1. Go to uts.edu.au.
2. Select Find a course under Popular Links.
3. Explore the course areas that match your goal — the site groups options for students across fields such as film, fashion, business, social justice and AI.
4. Open the individual course page and check its admission requirements and study options before starting an application.

Step 2: Use the official "How to apply" entry

The homepage lists How to apply as a Popular Link. This is the page that routes you into the correct application process.

• Local (domestic) students and international students follow different application paths, so choose the option that matches your status.
• The correct path determines your deadlines, documentation and where your application is submitted.
• Do not assume a single form covers everyone — the site separates these routes deliberately.

Step 3: Confirm your eligibility and requirements

Before submitting, verify that you meet the requirements for your specific course. Requirements vary by course and by applicant type, so read the course page and the relevant "How to apply" section together.

Step 4: Get help if you need it

If the requirements or the correct application path are unclear, contact UTS for guidance. The site is built around supporting students "to get to where you want to be," and staff can confirm which route applies to your situation.

Common sticking points

• Skipping course selection. Choosing a course first avoids applying through the wrong pathway.
• Using the wrong applicant route. Local and international processes differ; picking the wrong one can delay or invalidate an application.
• Relying on unofficial sources. Apply through uts.edu.au so your application and any guidance come from the university itself.

Why applicants consider UTS

UTS describes itself as ranked in the top 100 worldwide and #7 in Australia, with industry-led degrees in Sydney's tech precinct and a focus on career-ready skills. The site also cites a 93.3% employment figure. These points are relevant context when deciding whether to apply, but they do not change the application steps above.
