Details
An Extended Foundation Program is available for students who require additional language or academic support to assist them with the adjustment to a new educational environment. Academically eligible students with IELTS 5.0 (with sub-scores of at least 5.0) may undertake seven weeks of English classes from January and commence the Extended Foundation Program in February.
The QUTIC Foundation programs have been registered on CRICOS for delivery in Australia to overseas students, providing an academic preparation for those seeking entry to first year of QUT undergraduate study or its equivalent.
Foundation Program graduates enjoy a very high placement rate in undergraduate courses at QUT. All QUT faculties recognise the program. Students who complete the Foundation Program with the required faculty Grade Point Average (GPA), meet the pre-requisite requirements and have the required grade in Academic English 2, are guaranteed a place in the first year of the relevant QUT degree program.
Students will choose their preferred faculty course before commencing their Foundation Program; however, it is often possible to change preference during the course of the program.
Students who achieve excellent results in the first semester may have the opportunity in the final semester to study up to two University Diploma units for credit towards their degree.
The Foundation Program also includes academic, sporting and/or social activities.
