    How is my application processed?
    Your application is processed only after all the relevant documents are received. Applicants residing in Australia who have satisfied the entry conditions for their chosen course will be invited to attend an informal interview with the CEO/Director of Studies or Delegate, who will determine the suitability of your chosen course. Applicants residing overseas at the time of enrolling will be assessed for eligibility by the CEO/Director of Studies or Delegate through the submission of the enrolment form and supporting documents.  

    If your education qualifications do not meet the colleges admission requirements, other factors will be considered. These are:
    a. Age
    b. Work experience
    c. Attitude and aptitude
    d. Previous academic results
    e. Attendance rate in the previous college (if applicable)
    f. Ability and skills to function in an academic environment
    g. Possibility to succeed in his/her academic endeavours.

    Having arrived at an admission decision, the English language skills (language and literacy) will be assessed. If the student has a satisfactory IELTS certificate score of 5.5 or higher the applicant will be admitted to his/her chosen course.

    If an applicant cannot produce a satisfactory IELTS certificate score of 5.5 or higher, and there are doubts about the English language skills to cope in an academic environment, the applicant will be advised to enrol in an English (ELICOS) course for an appropriate duration until the student achieves an IELTS certificate score of 5.5 or higher. This is not included in your student fees and needs to be paid by the student directly to the IELTS provider.
