Throughout the program, your achievement is carefully monitored. You will be given regular feedback on your progress.
Final assessment comprises a mixture of course work, tests and examinations.
University entry is based on two separate results:
English language proficiency is assessed within the Program and you will be awarded a grade from A to F.
The “C” grade is the minimum required for entry to the University of Sydney.
You will also receive a grade for each subject other than English assessed on a 10 point scale. An average score is calculated across all subjects except English Language. Your GPA is the average of your 8 subjects.
Please note that the Essential Computing Skills/Study Life Skills courses are compulsory but are not a component of the GPA.
