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

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú 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.

The ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Prep bridging course program has been developed by the University of Canberra together with ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú College. When you’ve successfully completed the program, you can apply for admission to ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú.

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Prep will prepare you for admission to a ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú degree by improving your skills in:

• research
• report and essay writing
• numeracy
• oral presentations
• time management
• online learning.

Online Delivery Mode:

• A 14-week program
• Online study via ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉúLearn that includes pre-recorded lectures and associated activities
• Flexible and self-paced learning
• Meet with the Program Coordinator and teacher as required

Face to Face Delivery Mode: 

• ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Prep is a 14-week course and offered three times a year
• There are two classes each week (four hours per week) held at the University of Canberra’s Bruce campus.

To be eligible for a place in the ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Prep program, you’ll need to:  

• be an Australian or New Zealand citizen or hold an Australian permanent residency visa

• visit â€¯and complete the online application form

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

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

Contact ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú College if you’re considering studying the Bachelor of Midwifery as a supplementary application form may be required.
