Science at Federation University Australia: ATAR needed
Gippsland · December 2025 offer roundIn the December 2025 offer round the lowest selection rank to receive an offer for Science at Federation University Australia (Gippsland) was 66.70 — up 12.90 from 53.80 in 2024. An ATAR of 66.70 means the last student offered a place was in about the top 33.30% of students in their age group.
The lowest selection rank is the lowest rank (your ATAR plus any adjustment factors) that received an offer in the December round. January rounds often go lower, so treat it as a guide to the selection standard, not a cut-off. VTAC course code 3700737001.
What it takes to reach 66.70Using VTAC's official aggregate to ATAR table.
You need an aggregate of about 115.9 (out of a possible 210): your best English plus three other scaled study scores, plus 10% of your fifth and sixth. If your scaled scores were all about equal, that is roughly 27.6 in each study.
Scaled scores depend on the study: see how each VCE subject scales, and use the calculator to estimate yours from SAC and exam marks.
