Outcome of Application

Outcome letters

The Selective Entry Unit will send advice in August 2009 informing you whether your child has been offered a place or has been unsuccessful.

Please note that while offers can be accepted, enrolments will not be finalised until after the official “Application to Enrol” form has been processed by the individual school.

Response to offers

If you receive an offer you must fill out a response form and return it by the date shown. The printed response form must be returned by post or faxed to the Selective Entry Unit on 03 9012 4119. You must respond to the Selective Entry Unit, not to individual schools.

Acknowledgement of response

Whether you accept or decline an offer, an acknowledgement will be sent confirming your decision. If this confirmation is not received within 21 days you should contact the Selective Entry Unit.

Withdrawal of offers

Offers will be withdrawn if it is found that students do not satisfy all the eligibility requirements.

Offers or enrolments may be terminated if placement is made on the basis of false or misleading information.

Offers will lapse if the Selective Entry Unit is unable to contact the applicant to make an offer, or determine the response.

Late offers

Parents may be contacted in the event that a vacancy arises at any of the schools that were on the applicant’s original preference list. This would include an offer of a place to an applicant who was unsuccessful in the first round of offers or who did not receive an offer for their first preference school.

Note that after Friday 4 December 2009 no further offers will be made to students who already have accepted a place at a selective entry high school.
