Monash tops preference poll

Monash University has again got the highest percentage in the Victorian first preference popularity polls. It is better than its rival Melbourne University who has experienced a greater decline as it transitions to its graduate model and cuts undergraduate course.

In Melbourne University, some undergraduate courses such as law, dentistry and physiotherapy are discontinued and transformed to graduate programs. This year 65 undergraduate courses are offered at Melbourne, compared to nearly 200 offered at Monash.

This year Monash University obtained 15,175 first preferences (24%); followed by Deakin University, 9978 (16%); Melbourne University, 8,022 (13%); and La Trobe University 6767 (11%).

The data from other Victorian universities had yet to be released.
