Understanding Reserve List Bands
The NSW Department of Education uses a banding system (A-F) to indicate the likelihood of receiving a NSW Selective Schools school offer from the reserve list.
Band A

Highest priority - offers typically made within first month
Band B
High
Strong chance of receiving an offer within 2 months
Band C
Good
Good prospects for an offer within 3 months
Band D
Moderate
Moderate chance of receiving an offer within 4 months
Band E
Lower
Lower likelihood but still possible within 5 months
Band F
Unlikely
Unlikely to receive an offer - consider alternatives
About Reserve Lists
Reserve lists are used when NSW Selective Schools schools have available positions after the main round of offers. Students are ranked on reserve lists and may receive offers if positions become available. The timeline shows how reserve list positions change over time as offers are made and accepted.
