Further Education

Further education encompasses further learning and development after completing secondary school. In South Australia, students can choose from a range of universities, vocational education and training (VET) institutions, and private colleges. Prominent universities such as Flinders University and the University of Adelaide provide a diverse array of undergraduate and postgraduate courses across disciplines like arts, sciences, engineering, and health sciences. For students considering further education, it is important that they seek relevant information to discover any pre-requisite learning and required admission requirements.

To apply for courses at these universities, students typically use the South Australian Tertiary Admissions Centre (SATAC). SATAC manages the application process for most undergraduate and some postgraduate courses, allowing students to apply to multiple institutions through a single platform. The application process involves selecting preferred courses, submitting academic records, and meeting specific admission requirements, which may include interviews or additional assessments for certain programs. SATAC provides detailed guidance and support throughout the application process, helping students navigate their options and make informed decisions about their educational futures.
