For psychology applicants, your WAM should be calculated using results from all units (including failed units) in your most recent APAC accredited qualification along with the credit points for each unit.
Sum of (final marks x subject credit points) / sum of total credit points studied
Example:
| Final Mark | Credit Points | Final Mark x Credit Point |
| 67 | 12.5 | 67 x 12.5 = 837.50 |
| 82 | 12.5 | 82 x 12.5 = 1,025 |
| 74 | 12.5 | 74 x 12.5 = 925 |
| 68 | 12.5 | 68 x 12.5 = 850 |
| 50 | 3,637.50 |
- Sum of (final marks x subject credit points) = 3,637.50
- Sum of total credit points studied = 50
- WAM calculation = 3637.50/50
- WAM= 75
Counselling and psychotherapy applicants should provide the total WAM for all subjects in their most recent qualification. If you are applying with overseas qualifications, please provide an estimate to your WAM or total score.
If your current or previous higher education provider uses a GPA grading system or does not provide numerical marks on your official academic transcript, we will require an additional document from you in order to process your application. See this FAQ answer for more information.
