How to get into WAAPA

The Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts offers a wide range of courses – from Vocational Education and Training (VET) Certificates, Diplomas and Advanced Diplomas funded by the Government of Western Australia, Department of Training and Workforce Development– through to Bachelor, Masters and Doctoral degrees.

Admission to all of these courses is by audition and/or interview. Admission to the Bachelor programs at WAAPA also requires completion of entrance requirements for ECU.

If you don’t meet University admission requirements, you should discuss your options with staff at WAAPA.

Applications

Applications to WAAPA courses open in May the year prior to course commencement. Application kits are updated each year and provide detailed instructions about how to audition for each course.

Domestic applications are submitted direct to ECU. There is no need to apply through the TISC system.

International students

We welcome international students to WAAPA and encourage you to apply for any of our Bachelor, Masters or Doctoral degree courses.

Please visit Our Courses web page to browse our individual courses. You can then apply for a course through International Admissions.

Unfortunately, VET courses are unable to accept international applications at this stage.
