Entry requirements
Postgraduate and higher courses usually use academic prerequisites, degree equivalence and English-language requirements.
Postgraduate entry
- To be considered for entry into this course, you must have completed an undergraduate degree (or equivalent) in any discipline, including at least 50 credit points at second year level or above in subjects requiring written and analytical assessment with a Weighted Average Mark (WAM) of at least 70% (or equivalent).
If the student's current English result is below the direct-entry requirement, consider the university's recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package. When the student successfully completes the approved pathway at the required level, the university may accept that pathway for English entry without requiring a new IELTS, TOEFL or PTE result. Always confirm exclusions for professional registration courses and the offer conditions.
