Getting into UC College

To study at UC College, you’ll need to fulfil several entry requirements. All students need to meet our academic and English language requirements, and a set of inherent requirements which are specific to each course.

If you’re an international student, you’ll also need to satisfy the Genuine Temporary Entrant (GTE) requirement as part of your student visa application.

Entry requirements differ from course to course, but there are a few minimum conditions you should be aware of that apply to all courses.

Explore information on UCC’s entry requirements below.

English language requirements

Both local and international students will need to meet UCC’s English language requirements.

Depending on your background and the study you’ve previously completed, you may meet our English language requirements already. If you don’t, you can take an English language test, like IELTS, to meet the required English level.

Inherent requirements

Inherent requirements are the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to achieve the learning outcomes of your degree. All students need to meet the minimum inherent requirements.

It’s important you review the requirements related to your course or study area before you apply, so you can consider whether you’ll be able to meet them or if you’ll need to make some adjustments.
