Qualifications Assessment Service (QAS)
UAC’s Qualifications Assessment Service (QAS) provides prospective applicants with an assessment of their qualifications. This may be used as a guide by admissions officers for determining eligibility for courses offered by UAC’s participating institutions.
Important points about the QAS:
- UAC can only assess qualifications from the documents provided and UAC may decline to assess qualifications if the information for a valid assessment is not provided.
- The assessment is not an application for study at UAC’s participating institutions.
- The assessment is valid as at the date of issue and is based on the confidential common assessment procedures and guidelines approved by UAC’s participating institutions.
- The assessment is a guide only, and UAC’s participating institutions are not bound by the assessment.
- The terms and conditions are in the disclaimer.
