What ATAR Do You Need for Engineering in Queensland? (2026)

In 2025, the lowest selection rank that received a Engineering offer in Queensland ranged from 62.45 (UniSC) to 84.00 (UQ). These are selection ranks — your ATAR plus any adjustment factors — not minimum ATARs, so students below them still received offers. 2 universities also publish a guaranteed ATAR you can aim for.

Semester 1, 2025 offer round, from QTAC (each university links to its listing). “Lowest selection rank” includes adjustment factors; “Lowest ATAR” excludes them. Guaranteed ATARs are each university’s own forward promise (see the linked source and its year). Figures change every year.

Read this before you rely on a number. A “cutoff” is last year’s lowest selection rank — not a minimum ATAR and not a guarantee. Students whose ATAR is below it can still get offers once adjustment factors lift their selection rank to it, and competitive courses may also use tests, interviews and prerequisites. Always confirm on QTAC and with the university. Full explainer: how QLD ATAR cutoffs work.
