The senior management team has decided to introduce a uniform admission requirement across AU, primarily because removal of the quick-start bonus will generally mean that future applicants have lower average grades than previously. For NAT, this means that in future, applicants must have an average grade of at least 6.0 in their qualifying examination, and at least 6.0 on average in mathematics at upper secondary level A in order to be admitted to a NAT study programme via quota 1.
