Careers and Senior Pathways
Senior Pathways Careers Expo
This week we hosted Careers Expo where a range of organisations set up stalls with information for post school pathways. Our Years 10, 11 and 12 students were especially engaged and it was pleasing to see students conversing and collecting brochures about possible career pathways. Thank you to the following organisations who attended for enriching the educational experience of the Killester students:
- Holmesglen Institute
- RMIT
- Swinburne
- Australian Defence Force
- The University of Melbourne
- LCI Academy
- Monash University
- Carlton College of Sport
- Collarts
- Deakin
- Australian Catholic University
RMIT Early Offers - Applications now open!
Through RMIT's early Offer Program, a Year 12 student's life experience outside the classroom can count towards their dream Associate or Bachelor's Degree, allowing them to be accepted on a lower ATAR and taking some of the pressure off their final year of high school. It's part of RMIT's commitment to diversity, equitable learning, and students could receive a conditional offer in September.
