Uniready Enabling Program
The UniReady Enabling Program is a fully online program designed to quality students for entry into Curtin University. This course is particularly suited to students who wish to gain entry to Humanities, Health Sciences and Business courses that do not have specific prerequisites.
The UniReady Enabling Program is free to Australian and New Zealand citizens, and Australian permanent residents, but is not available to international students. It comprises three core units and one optional unit and is offered in two modes: UniReady Online and UniReady Summer.
UniReady Enabling Program - Online
The program is flexible and can be taken over one or two semesters, depending on whether you choose to study full-time or part-time. It has a first semester (start of year) and second semester (mid-year) intake and is studied fully online in both semesters.
UniReady Enabling Program - Summer
The summer program is specifically designed for current year 12 students who have completed a minimum of four Stage 2 courses in year 12 and have an ATAR below 70, which limits their eligibility to enrol in Curtin's undergraduate courses.
This course is a five-week intensive enabling program held on the Bentley Campus during January and February.
