Your pathway into the second year

Our UniLink diplomas are accredited, award-level higher education qualifications to help you enter the second year of a range of bachelor degrees at Swinburne. They're an alternative pathway – with a next gen difference!

You'll study similar content to the first year of a bachelor degree in smaller classes, so you'll get more attention from the teachers to help you adjust to university. Based among our thriving Hawthorn campus community, you'll gain access to the same facilities and services as your bachelor degree peers.

Is it the right option for me?

A UniLink diploma is a great choice if you:

  • did not get the ATAR needed for your preferred bachelor degree
  • did not complete high school in Australia
  • prefer extra support from teachers.
