Student selection process

Our student selection process ensures that quality students have the opportunity to experience an excellent education that will assist them to gain entry to their preferred tertiary pathways.

Prospective applicants are expected to show excellent academic strength, good English language skills and other personal merits when applying for entry to Northcote High School. To be considered for enrolment, applicants need to demonstrate:

  • 80+ academic report
  • IELTS 5.5+ (to be exempt from the 20-week intensive English course students require IELTS of 6.00+).

We conduct an interview through face-to-face or via electronic platform with applicants. We then make a final decision and inform the applicant or their agent.
