The Equivalent National Tertiary Entrance Rank (ENTER) is the national Australian tertiary entrance score, administered by the AVCC (Australian Vice-Chancellors' Committee). It is designed to make it easy to compare entrance scores for students educated in different states, to ease the process of admission for university applicants from interstate. The Australian Vice-Chancellors’ Committee advances higher education through voluntary, cooperative and coordinated action. ...
Equivalence
The term ENTER is only used in Victoria, although the actual rank is identical and equivalent to the Universities Admission Index (UAI) used in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, and to the Tertiary Entrance Rank (TER) used in South Australia, the Northern Territory, Tasmania and Western Australia. Queensland uses a different system called the Overall Position (OP), but conversion tables are published each year to convert the OP to/from an ENTER or TER.

Each state's university and government education authorities determines the method of calculation of the ENTER or state-equivalent for students from that state, due to the historical differences between different state's education systems. However, these decisions are co-ordinated to ensure that the necessary equivalence is maintained (i.e. so that an ENTER of 90.00 from Victoria will indicate a sufficiently similar degree of attainment as a UAI of 90.00 from NSW, in spite of the differences in each rank's methods of application.)
Calculation of the ENTER in Victoria ENTERs are calculated by the Victorian Tertiary Admissions Centre (VTAC) for all students who satisfactorily complete the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) and who meet certain other criteria for receiving an ENTER.

Students' results or study scores are provided to VTAC by the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority. Each subject study score is scaled - that is adjusted up or down to take into account the strength of competition amongst the cohort of students studying the subject that year. Scaling is undertaken to ensure that each subject contributes equally to the ENTER.
An aggregate is developed by adding: Look up Aggregate on Wiktionary, the free dictionary The term aggregate may refer to— in communication, to collect messages from multiple sources for presentation together, as in an RSS (file format) aggregator. ...
- the scaled score in a VCE English subject (either English, English as a Second Language, Literature or English Language),
- the next best three scaled scores,
- 10% of any fifth and/or sixth scaled scores (if available),
- additional studies such as VET (Vocational Education and Training) or tertiary extension studies may also be considered.
Candidates are ranked in order of these aggregates, and the ENTER is an overall percentage ranking of each student's position on this list in steps of 0.05 ranging from 0.00 to 99.95.
