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 2 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 comparable to IELTS 6.5 and is the minimum required for entry to the University of Sydney.
You will also receive a grade for each subject assessed on a 10-point scale. An average score is calculated across all subjects except English Language.
Please note that the IT Skills/Study Life Skills courses are compulsory and non-assessable programs for all students.
