How it works

If you missed out on a University course in March, the MIT Diploma programs provide you the ultimate alternative Pathway to University.

The MIT Diploma programs are of two semesters (8 months) duration, and consist of units equivalent to the first-year of relevant Bachelor degrees at MIT and other Australian Universities. On successful completion of your MIT Diploma, you could enter second-year of a relevant Bachelor degree at MIT, Deakin University, Swinburne University of Technology, Monash University, or University of Ballarat.
