SUPPORT FOR STUDENTS AFTER THE RELEASE OF TCE RESULTS
The arrival of TCE results in December can cause some students to re-evaluate their future plans. The Careers Centre will be open from 8.30 am – 4.00 pm on Thursday 15 December (the day after the release of TCE results) to assist students and parents who want to discuss options and/or make changes to tertiary study applications.

2023 UTAS HIGH ACHIEVER PROGRAM
Current Grade 10 and Grade 11 students are encouraged to enquire about the UTAS High Achiever Program.
The Program provides a unique educational experience for high-achieving Tasmanian senior secondary students to study at university as part of their Tasmanian Certificate of Education. The aims of the Program are to:
- provide opportunities for high achieving Grade 11/12 students to start university early
- to build familiarity and confidence with university level learning
- to encourage and support pathways to University of Tasmania courses
All successfully completed High Achiever Program units contribute towards the Tasmanian Certificate of Education. Scaled unit results are also eligible for inclusion in the calculation of the Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR).
Interested students are encouraged to contact me to arrange a time to meet to discuss the program and the application process, which includes a student statement of interest and two references. Applications are due to the Careers Centre by Wednesday 14 December.
