Education in Melbourne may be divided into four groups: pre-school, primary education, secondary education and tertiary education. Melbourne is home to some of Australia's largest university and prominent independent schools. Entry to tertiary education for most students is through the Victorian secondary school system where students are ranked by the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) upon completion of Year 12. Tertiary educationMelbourne's two largest universities are the University of Melbourne and Monash University, the largest university in Australia. Both are members of the Group of Eight. The largest university campus in Melbourne by size is La Trobe University's Melbourne Campus, located in Bundoora. In 2016, the University of Melbourne was ranked first among Australian universities and the 33rd among universities in the world by the Times Higher Education (THES) international rankings. Furthermore, Monash University was ranked the 74th best university in the world.[1] Due to these high rankings Melbourne was ranked as the world's fourth top university city in 2012 after London, Boston and Tokyo.[2] Other notable universities in Melbourne include the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, La Trobe University and Swinburne University of Technology which have all placed in the THES rankings.
