The degree Bachelor of Actuarial studies is offered through the School of Finance, Actuarial Studies and Applied Statistics. Up to fifteen of the twenty-four courses in the three-year pass degree may be accepted by the Institute of Actuaries of Australia to give exemption from the eight Part I subjects of the examinations for Fellowship of the Institute. Although a three-year pass degree leading to the Bachelor of Actuarial Studies is available, completion of Part II subjects examined by the Institute can only be obtained by completing the four-year degree leading to the Bachelor of Actuarial Studies (Honours) or by separate postgraduate study. The program is highly prescribed. Interested students should consult the Convener of the Actuarial Program or the College of Business and Economics.
Admission Requirements
Admission to all programs is on a competitive basis, taking into account all relevant academic qualifications. If you hold more than one qualification, admission will be based on your overall record. Tertiary qualifications are generally weighted more heavily than secondary. If you have completed an approved tertiary preparation course or alternative entry scheme, you will be assessed on the results of that scheme alone, unless you have undertaken subsequent study.
