First six weeks in the Division of Business

Aim

This program provides a high degree of flexibility for students to combine any two single degrees in the Division of Business. A double degree provides a number of benefits, in particular:

Entry requirements

Once enrolled in a single degree, prospective students must meet the entry requirements of the second degree to gain entry into this program. After 18 units of study, this will mean gaining the tertiary transfer entry rank, unless otherwise specified.

Students who wish to undertake the overseas study option through Normandy Business School must also meet the requirements to participate in the exchange program to be eligible to transfer into this plan.

Minimum English language entry requirements: coursework programs

The minimum English language entry requirements for international students who speak English as a foreign language are detailed below. It should be noted that some programs may specify higher English language entry requirements. These will be indicated in relevant program documentation.

Applicants are required to meet at least one of the English language entry requirements listed. Possession of one or more of these qualifications, in addition to the academic entry requirements does not, in itself, guarantee a place at the University of South Australia. Applications are considered on an individual basis and selection is competitive.

Where previous study/work experience was conducted in English, the application must be accompanied by certified documentation from the educational institution/employer certifying that the language of instruction/employment was English.
