Entry requirements

Postgraduate and higher courses usually use academic prerequisites, degree equivalence and English-language requirements.

Postgraduate entry

Either:

  • a recognised bachelor degree with an equivalent average mark of 50%, plus a minimum of three years’ relevant full-time professional;
  • managerial experience and a one-page Statement of Motivation*.

Other tertiary qualifications combined with extensive professional work experience will be considered.

  • The Statement of Motivation should be no more than one page, written in English, and address: your motivation for studying the MBA with the Sydney Business School, University of Wollongong; and how the degree will help achieve your career goals and aspirations.

Upload your professional experience document and Statement of Motivation as a PDF within the UAC application .

English requirement
IELTS Academic 6 (L 5 / R 6 / W 6 / S 5)

If your current English result is below direct entry, consider the university-recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package; successful completion at the required level can usually satisfy English entry without another English test.
