Nursing ATAR cutoffs in Victoria
37 nursing courses at 9 institutions in Victoria, from 90.00 down to 57.10. Double degrees are included. Cutoffs are the lowest selection rank offered a place in VTAC's December 2025 round.
A selection rank includes adjustment points, so some students got in with a lower ATAR. Cutoffs move every year, so treat them as a guide and check each course's prerequisites before you put it in your preferences.
