How do I apply?

What to consider before applying

Prior to applying, it is essential that you consider your ability to undertake a university subject whilst undertaking your Senior Studies.  You should consider how an additional study load will impact commitments such as leadership positions, camps and their senior curriculum.

ESP students are officially enrolled at UQ.  This means that the final ESP grade remains on your official academic record at UQ.  All grades on a student’s record (including ESP studies) may be used to calculate a Grade Point Average (GPA) for applications for study in undergraduate, honours, postgraduate or research studies in the future.

Eligibility criteria

ESP is available to undertake in Year 12 (Semester 1) or Year 11 (Semester 2). 

High academic achievers gaining at least a 'B' cumulative average (or equivalent) during Semester 2, Year 10 (Year 11 Semester Two applicants) or Semester 1, Year 11 (Year 12, Semester One applicants) in a Queensland school. Further criteria is outlined here, and specific additional entry criteria for some courses may apply.
