You cannot enter university in Australia after the 11th grade, as school education here lasts longer. Applicants need to eliminate the academic difference. There are two ways to do this: either study for a year at a university in your home country, or complete one of the preparatory programs (A-Levels, Foundation, etc.). Before applying, you need to pass the IELTS, PTE or TOEFL exam. A subject exam is required. The university relies on the SAT results. CDU also provides online undergraduate programs.
Master's degree at CDU
The academic performance of a student in an undergraduate program plays an important role in the selection of candidates. It is impossible to enter CDU for a master's program without confirming knowledge of the English language. You can do this by passing IELTS, PTE or TOEFL. CDU provides an opportunity to get a master's degree remotely.
CDU campus
The campus of the educational institution is suburban. It combines the features of a rural and urban campus. Students live separately from the city and create a close-knit community. At the same time, they are not very far from the city and have access not only to urban entertainment, such as cinemas and restaurants, but also to outdoor activities. University students have access to the library. It contains a collection of scientific papers, textbooks and fiction. Foreigners who come to CDU through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
In Australia, you can stay for a period of 1.5 to 4 years after graduation. To do this, you must obtain a graduate visa — it allows you to work in the country without changing your visa to a work one. We talk about other options for immigration in our article.
