Monash Pathway Programs

Monash has a one year Diploma that pathways into the second year of some degrees in certain Faculties. So all is not lost if you don't get the ATAR needed for your Degree of choice.

Science Stream: DoHE

The Science pathway program through Monash is called DoHE. Diploma of Higher Education.

The way it works is you study 2 Diploma University preparation subjects and then 6 units of your Science degree.

If you pass the 2 University units you can move to the first year of the degree.

If you pass these 2 units and the Science units you move to 2nd year of the Science degree.

If you apply for the DoHE you need to fill in a supplementary form. This can be found on your VTAC application, first page, on the top bar.

You will need to provide a Personal Statement to go along with your application. This is available on your VTAC registration page. Look across the top bar. It is due by the 4th of Dec (but it's recommended the sooner the better.)

RMIT

This year RMIT is offering packaged pathways as options for VTAC preferences through Pathways Guaranteed. Information about Pathways Guaranteed was presented at the recent virtual RMIT Open Day.

ACU

The Bachelor of Educational Studies has been designed for domestic and international students who are passionate about becoming teachers, but do not achieve the entry requirements to go directly into a Bachelor of Education (Primary) or the Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood and Primary).

Although the 3-year Bachelor of Educational Studies allows students to gain a qualification to work in education-related fields other than teaching, it is also designed as a pathway for students who wish to consider future study in teaching in Early Childhood and Primary Education. Students who successfully complete the first year of this degree may be eligible to apply for transfer into the second year of the Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood and Primary) or the Bachelor of Education (Primary). Students who complete the three years of study can progress to a postgraduate Initial Teacher Education qualification. Find out more at Bachelor of Educational Studies
