Any tertiary studies successfully completed at another institution prior to enrolment may lead to Credit for Prior Learning (CPL). Where relevant to the UOW degree, specified credit may be given for specific subject(s); where not relevant to the degree, unspecified credit may be awarded. Applicants holding relevant TAFE qualifications with a consistently good performance will normally be granted 48 credit points (one year) of credit. Students planning to articulate are advised to take the maximum number of mathematics and science units available in their TAFE course.
Please refer to our Credit for Prior Learning website for information on how to apply for credit, or to check whether an overseas qualification is recognised by UOW.
If you have completed prior studies or relevant professional experience, you can request course credit or subject exemptions to reduce the duration and cost of your program.
Credit for prior learning evaluates your previous study or work experience related to your chosen subjects.
UOW values lifelong learning and recognizes various types of prior learning, regardless of how or where it was obtained. For more information, refer to UOW's Credit for Prior Learning page.
