Course Information

UCanREACH is a university preparation course that will help you prepare for university studies and to gain a university entrance score. This course will suit anyone who has missed out on further study due to personal circumstances – and would now like to give it a go!

UCanREACH is classified as an enabling program. Australian citizens, permanent residents of Australia and New Zealand citizens are not liable for course fees.

It has two important objectives:

  • A pathway to the University of Canberra;
  • An opportunity to develop the skills needed to study successfully at University.

Students study three units:

  1. Learning at University 

    Learning at University is a basic introduction to university study and aims to build students' confidence, develop an understanding of university life and introduce students to the university’s online support modules.

  2. Communicating for Professional Futures

    Communicating for Professional Futures provides analysis of, and practice in, the range of text types students will be introduced to in undergraduate study.

  3. Understanding Community

    Understanding Community provides a content area in which students can develop academic practices of critical analysis, active participation, independent learning, primary and secondary research, group work and academic literacy.
