The Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC) is a non-profit organisation that provides undergraduate and postgraduate tertiary entry and application services for 17 major universities and tertiary education institutions in Queensland and northern New South Wales. QTAC is funded entirely by student application fees.
Starting for the 2020 cohort, QTAC is also responsible for calculating Queensland students' Australian Tertiary Admission Ranks for high-school graduates. This change accompanies a complete overhaul of the senior schooling system from the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority, bringing Queensland in-line with the rest of Australia's high-school and university entry systems.
