Why study a Diploma?
A UNSW College Diploma provides a direct pathway into UNSW Sydney through a supportive 12-month learning experience. With smaller classes and personalised guidance, you'll build the confidence, academic skills and knowledge needed to succeed at university. Start this August and take the next step into the second year of a UNSW degree.
Whether your interests lie in Architecture, Business, Computer Science, Engineering, Media and Communications, or Science, you'll have access to a wide range of specialisations to help shape your future and achieve your study and career goals.
Equivalent to first year
Developed with UNSW, our Diplomas mirror the first-year degree curriculum and are fully recognised by UNSW. Taught by expert teachers, many of whom also teach at UNSW – so you meet the same high standards from day one.
Direct path to second year
Complete our 12-month Diploma and progress directly into the second year of your preferred degree at UNSW Sydney. Graduate with your dream UNSW degree – no compromises, no delays.
Complete support when you need it
Our dedicated support teams are here to help prepare you for a smooth transition to UNSW Sydney, covering everything from academics to well-being. Enjoy individual attention in small classes, weekly tutor consultations, and access to study and social clubs, volunteering opportunities and internships.
"Completing my diploma at UNSW College prepared me immensely for university life. I thrived in the diverse environment, honed my time management skills, and embraced the higher standard of education and dedication."
