student demand

Student demand for entry to UNE has grown year on year since 2010.

Over the same period, the number of offers, as a proportion of applications received, has reduced from 84% to 79%. This suggests that UNE is maintaining its entry standards in the face of growing demand.

Where is the growth? Commencing student numbers jumped markedly in both 2012 and 2013 due to growth in bachelors online associated with the introduction of both the demand driven-system and a trimester calendar at UNE.

Bachelors on-campus commencing student numbers have remained flat, while a limited amount of growth has occurred in postgraduate coursework.2009 2010 2011 2012 2013
