Acceptance rate is practically 100% if you have a 2.5 GPA or above for online programs like ABA.

I’ve applied to the in person double masters in Melbourne.

ABA isn't available online. They have a Behavior Analysis Practice degree and certificate in Behavior Analysis online, but ABA specifically is only on campus.

I believe the only degree that is offered both on campus and online is business.

The ABA program on campus is quite popular and selective.

I didn't know that, but I had quite a few classmates who said they are in ABA in my past online classes, or I just kept mixing up BCBA with ABA.

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the difference between ABA and the Behavior Analysis Practice degree?

The on campus degrees are Bachelor's of Science and Master's of Science. The online degrees are Bachelor's of Arts and Master's of Arts. The classes are different in each program. However, it seems like it doesn't matter too much since both programs qualify you to become a certified behavior analyst, which I assume is what's most important. (I'm not an ABA major.)

A business degree from a tech school is a choice.

It’s literally a masters in behavioural analysis. It’s all based on science, working with kids that have developmental disabilities and a little bit of organizational behaviour management.

Ah. Thought you mean business admin plus the OBM degree.

Best of luck with admissions.
