MINISTER FOR EDUCATION and TRAINING

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION NO 1180

Canberra Institute of Technology -

Unsuccessful Enrolment Applicants

MR CORNWELL - asked the Minister for Education and Training -

How many people missed out on a place at Canberra Institute of Technology in 1994?

MR WOOD - the answer to the members question is as follows:

As I have noted on prior occasions it is very difficult to establish precisely how many applicants for places in mainstream courses were not able to gain enrolment, given the mix of direct and postal enrolments and at separate times in the year. For this year the assessment of unmet demand is further complicated by major improvements CIT have made in their enrolment processes and the. impact of major changes in demand for university places.

Overall I expect that unmet demand for CIT mainstream places in 1994 will be comparable to that estimated for 1993. The latest CIT estimates suggest a figure of something less than 4000 places for the year to date.
