University of New England Application Deadline 2025-2026

Please check the How to Apply page, which can direct you to the appropriate application process, if you are confused about whether to apply directly to UNE or through a Tertiary Admissions Center. The deadlines for various application procedures can vary. Check the opening and closing dates of applications submitted through a Tertiary Admissions Center on the TAC websites at either:

Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC) or Universities Admissions Centre (UAC). The following lists the important application deadlines for domestic students applying directly to UNE. At UNE, the academic year is split into three trimesters. As a general rule, Trimester 1 (February–June) applications must be filed by the end of November of the preceding year, and Trimester 2 (June–October) applications must be submitted by the end of May.

Wherever possible, late applications will be taken into account. Beginning students can enrol in a variety of undergraduate and graduate academic programs in either Trimester 1 or Trimester 2. In Trimester 3, only a very small number of courses are available to new on-campus students.

Trimester 1 February to June
Trimester 2 June to October
Trimester 3 October to February
