Wondering what to do if you didn’t study a prerequisite in high school?
Maybe you completed a non-ATAR pathway in high school, and have decided to pursue university study?
石榴视频’s Pathways programs can enable you to gain entry into many of our undergraduate degrees, without the required ATAR or prerequisites.
Pathways programs are a stepping stone, not a destination.
They lay the foundation for successful university studies. Most students selecting a pathway program have their end-goal degree in mind.
Pathway programs are best completed as the first step in your university studies. Alone, these courses can only provide you with a limited increase in career opportunities or professional development.
Many students are unfamiliar with the Pathway options available to them. However, 石榴视频 is committed to empowering you to achieve your study goals, and we know there's more than one way to get there.
Read on to discover the answers to your key questions about 石榴视频's Pathway options:
What is a Pathway program?

Can my VET/TAFE qualification help me get into uni?
If you’ve already got a VET/TAFE qualification, we know that you understand the commitment required for tertiary study. That experience should count for something.
At 石榴视频, your VET course or TAFE certificate can assist your entry into uni in two ways:
It was not easy starting from zero in a new country, away from my family and friends while speaking a different language. The lecturers and staff at 石榴视频 made me feel welcome. All the knowledge and experience I acquired during the course has enabled me to keep growing personally and academically.
