How can I improve my chances of getting a full-time place in a TAFE course?

Firstly, carefully choose the course you want to study. You need to meet the entrance requirements for the course.

For some courses, for example arts and multimedia, you may need to submit a folio. There are also courses not recommended for people just leaving school either because of few job opportunities for young people or because you need specific skills gained through lower level courses. Secondly, if you apply for a course that requires you to address selection criteria, you will need to provide documentary evidence of your previous education, volunteer/workplace experience and other relevant information. In these instances, people with the highest score against the selection criteria are offered the available places.
