Pathways

Don't meet the traditional entry requirements? The University of Tasmania aims to increase access and participation in tertiary education through providing alternate pathways and partnerships. The College of Arts, Law and Education offers alternative entry pathways for the following undergraduate programs.

Arts

The Arts pathway is a great introduction into university study, and can assist you in gaining the qualifications and experience you need for your chosen career.

This foundation year of study provides students with the skills and knowledge related to study the Humanities and Social Sciences, with additional support and guidance to help you succeed. Whether you intend to study a Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Social Sciences or Bachelor of Social Work, completing this year of foundation study in Diploma of University Studies (Arts Specialisation) (21A) will assist you in achieving your goals.

Education

There are two pathway options available to students wanting to enter an Initial Teacher Education degree program that will enable registration and a career in the teaching profession.

An Associate Degree (Education Support) (42A) is the alternative pathway for students who do not meet entry requirements for their preferred degree.

A Diploma of University Studies (Education Specialisation) (21A) which includes Education units, could also be an alternative pathway for those who do not meet minimum ATAR or minimum qualification levels.

You can study with us too.

Overseas Study

An overseas study program gives you the opportunity to experience different cultures, study languages, undertake work placement or internships, make new friends and explore the world while receiving credit toward your degree and creating professional and life experiences. It provides a 'total immersion' experience in a variety of study areas and locations. You can choose a program length that suits you, from a 2-week fieldtrip, a short-term summer program to a full semester (or two).
