Your entry route

This university does not publish one admission rule for everyone. Each program sets its own, so read the page of the program you want. Fledge shows no chance estimate here. This country publishes no admission rate, and we would rather say so than guess one.

Entry from a Mongolian Year 12 certificate
No Mongolia-specific rule is published. This is not a refusal. Contact admissions or use an approved education agent.
Mongolia does not appear on any Avondale list. Avondale states 'eligibility for entry based on overseas qualifications will be assessed individually' - no published country equivalency table exists. Avondale's English page names Australia, Canada, NZ, Ireland, UK, USA (and South Africa for some programs) as countries where secondary schooling alone satisfies the English requirement; Mongolia is NOT among them, so a Mongolian applicant will require a formal English test.
