It's a one-year course that will give you a solid understanding of science and maths, and can help you qualify for Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Speech Pathology, Engineering and other science degrees.
If you want to meet the entry requirements for a bachelor degree at Curtin, this short program can help.
UniReady is free to Australian and New Zealand citizens, and Australian permanent residents. It's designed to help you gain entry into Curtin's minimum ATAR undergraduate courses in Humanities, Business and Health Sciences.
UniReady is for you if you:
narrowly missed out on Curtin's minimum ATAR; or
completed year 12 but did not take WACE exams; or
completed TAFE studies at a certificate IV level; or
are a mature age student
The program aims to develop your independent learning skills in preparation for university-level study. It can be studied online during semester one or two, or if you're in year 12 you can complete it on-campus during the summer.
After successfully completing the program, a 'notional' ATAR will be calculated from your results. Your score isn't considered an official ATAR because it isn't awarded through WACE, but it's recognised by Curtin and TISC as meeting the university's minimum entry requirements.
Semester two: online
This six-month program is available fully online which includes live web conferencing support sessions. You'll need reliable access to the internet, with broadband preferable.
If you wish to study part-time, you can complete it over two semesters.
Applications are now open, and you can apply online.
Applications close 29 July 2013.
