Prepare with a leading Australian university…
…and study with a leading Australian university! There’s more than one way to get into uni—completing an enabling course might be an option for you.
If you didn’t finish high school, or you missed out on the grades you’d set your sights on, you still have options. When you successfully complete an enabling course, you unlock an alternate entry pathway to a degree. Enabling courses help you meet university admission criteria, so you’ll qualify for a range of degrees.
There’s a lot of pressure because you’re told there’s only one way you can get into uni. OUA smashes that belief.” —Carmen, graduated from Griffith University.
