The University of Western Australia has made more than 4400 offers for undergraduate courses this year - the most the University has ever made.

The number of offers has risen by three per cent from 4296 in 2009 to 4435 this year including 640 offers to students in rural WA and 136 to ‘second-chance' students through the University's Mature-age Access Program.

UWA Acting Vice-Chancellor, Professor Bill Louden said the higher number of offers was due to continuing demand among high achieving students for UWA courses.

"The University has managed to keep cut-off scores at similar levels to last year, despite increased demand in areas such as arts and science and ongoing strong demand in engineering," Professor Louden said.

Main round UWA offers will be delivered today and must be accepted online by next Tuesday (January 26).

Students will be able to find out what they've been offered from the TISC website https://www.tisc.edu.au/

Second round offers will be released on Wednesday February 3.

Students can find more information about enrolment and orientation activities at UWA at https://www.unistart.uwa.edu.au/
