UNE is a great option if you're looking to enter university as a mature-age student. The requirements differ widely between universities for mature-age entry, with some of the Go8 universities excluding mature-age students from certain degrees altogether.
- chris_wot 2y agoThis is news to me. Which subjects and which Go8 universities do this?
- ajxs 2y agoUSYD's website states that mature-age entry students are only eligible for a select set of courses: https://www.sydney.edu.au/study/applying/admission-pathways/mature-age-entry.html#eligible-courses https://www.sydney.edu.au/study/applying/admission-pathways/... Being fair, they do make it sound as though you can enter a degree you're eligible for, and then apply to transfer to another degree after a year of study. If you're transferring to a similar degree, your completed course units would probably count towards your total required elective units.
- chris_wot 2y agoThere are ways of getting into those courses without going through the Mature Age Scheme. Mature age students just don't get preferential treatment.
