Pathway Programs (UAC, UACM)

UoAC prepares students for undergraduate programs at the UoA through University maintained pathway programs. Students whose qualifications are just below the minimum academic requirements for direct admission into their chosen bachelor or master degree are admitted into the pathway program with guaranteed entry to their degree of choice, with no further English language requirement on successful completion of their pathway program.
