Academic entry requirements

We offer pathways for students to our Foundation Studies Programs, Degree Transfer Programs, Pre-Master’s Programs and English Language Programs. There are a wide range of study options available for domestic and international students that lead to Adelaide University. Information required for international students’ admission into the College is detailed below by country.

​

If your country is not listed, please contact us and we would be happy to assist you.

​

Academic assessment is based on the grades a student achieves in individual subjects, as well as an aggregate grade. Academic subjects are considered only, not subjects such as Religious Studies, Ethics or Physical Education. Forecast results may be accepted if they are available and each applicant will be assessed individually. Students must be able to provide documentary evidence of good school reports.
