Availability and Prerequisites

PPP 1 is available as a 10 week course, prior to the commencement of the PPP 2 program of each year.

Students entering this course must have achieved an adequate level of English language proficiency in a recognised English language test such as IELTS or TOEFL tests.

An IELTS score of a least 5.5 or equivalent is normally a prerequisite for this course, except where advanced standing has been allowed on the basis of previous study in the ELICOS program, and /or following appropriate placement and diagnostic testing.

This course is the first stage of a direct entry pathway for international students who require minimum English language entry requirements in order to commence a Masters program within the University of Canberra, but have not yet attained a high level of proficiency in English and a firm awareness of the culture that encompasses the language. Students entering this course will have already completed an undergraduate degree.
