Overview

We are living through uncertain times and that unpredictability is felt most acutely by students completing their Year 12 studies and those who have recently finished school. But there is a clear, fee-free, pathway available.

Transition to Uni is a free, intensive preparatory course designed for current ATAR-eligible Year 12 students and recent school leavers. 

The full-time intensive program is a six-week course. The course develops the key academic literacies and the foundational scientific and quantitative concepts you will need at university, through project-based learning, streamed interactive workshops and assessment preparation. You can proceed to a degree with the confidence you are ready to succeed in your university studies.

Passing the Transition to Uni program will guarantee you entry into all Southern Cross University undergraduate degrees* in 2021.

*excluding Midwifery. Students wanting to apply for Engineering need to achieve a Distinction or above for the unit UNIP1007 Scientific and Quantitative Concepts for University Study.

This course consists of two core units:

  • Academic Literacies
  • Scientific and Quantitative Concepts.
