Introduction

Main

If you’re over 21 and interested in applying for a University of Canberra undergraduate degree, but don’t currently meet the entry requirements, our ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Prep program can help develop your skills and qualify you for admission.

ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Prep is a pathways program for those who finished school a while ago, haven’t studied for some time or are looking to upskill, retrain or move into the para-professional world.

If you’re under 21 or have recently completed minimum of Year 12 in Australia, the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Connect is a similar bridging program for younger students.

Offers for entry to ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø degrees after you’ve successfully completed the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Prep program will depend on your ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Prep results. You may also need to meet a series of inherent requirements to successfully graduate from your ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Prep bridging course. 

It’s worth noting that not all ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø courses are available to study through the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Prep program, as some degrees require a higher entry score than can be achieved via a Pathways program.
