Adult Entry

Applying to study at Flinders is simple, even if you’ve been out of the school system for a while.

Applications are made via the South Australian Tertiary Admissions Centre (SATAC) at satac.edu.au.

The SATAC registration process is easy, and the site has comprehensive information about the application process. However, if you have any further questions about applying to study, don’t hesitate to contact us or request a one-on-one appointment at the bottom of this page.

You can view more information about how to apply, including when to apply and what happens after you apply here.

If you’ve studied at another institution, you may be able to have your study recognised as credit towards your new course, which could reduce the time required to complete your qualification.

You may even be able to have your previous work, voluntary experience or training recognised.

Find out more about credit transfer and recognition of prior learning here.

As you can imagine, degree costs vary, because course requirements vary from degree to degree. There are also Commonwealth supported and full fee-paying categories. You’ll find annual indicative fees on the individual course pages, based on a full-time study load of 18 units per semester, or 36 units per academic year.

Your total tuition fee is not confirmed until you have completed your enrolment.
