Entrance requirements for Study Abroad and Student Exchange

To study at UWA for up to 12 months you should be an enrolled student at your home university or college at the time of application.

The requirements are:

Tertiary level (university) students
completed one year of tertiary study at a recognised institution at the time of application, with an overall weighted average of 65 per cent/B grade/grade point average of 3 on a 4-point scale or equivalent
Postgraduate students
completed a first degree in order to take classes at a postgraduate level
High School students
completed a high school qualification in accordance with the admission requirements for entry to relevant Bachelor's degree programs at UWA (for example, BA and BSc).

Prerequisites

You'll need to have the appropriate prerequisites for the units that you wish to study at UWA. Generally, first year courses can be taken with no background, while higher level courses can only be taken if you have the appropriate prerequisites or have taken similar courses.

Check the units you are interested in taking for individual prerequisites.

Make sure you meet the University's prerequisites as well.

If you are from a non-English speaking background you'll need to meet the University's official English language requirements.
