Start your fearless future with Foundation Studies

A fast-track pathway to a university degree

Not everyone steps straight from school into university, and not everyone takes the same pathway to study. No matter when you graduated from high school, or even if you didn’t,^* you could start a degree at Flinders in as little as 5 weeks through Flinders Foundation Studies.

For Flinders alumna Sasha Clarke, Foundation Studies proved the perfect opportunity. After speaking to a student advisor at Flinders University, Sasha realised there was a way for her to pursue her interest in psychology and earn a degree, five years out of high school.

Like many of her peers, Sasha Clarke always wanted to go to university, but needed to be sure that she was passionate enough to be able to put in the required workload. With psychology in mind, Sasha spoke to a student advisor at Flinders University.

“Once I found out about the Foundation Studies course, I realised it was exactly what I needed after 5 years out of high school. I needed a refresher course and something more approachable than the STAT test”.

Now a graduate with a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychological Science and Business Marketing, Sasha knew she’d made the right call.

Successfully completing Flinders Foundation Studies Program will give you guaranteed entry into over 30 undergraduate degrees, and prepare you with the skills you need to become a successful university student.

The program is incredibly flexible, with an intensive 5-week program, or standard 4-month or 7-month programs. All can be studied online or on campus, with the 5-week and 4-month programs holding classes during working hours, and the 7-month program during evenings.

For Sasha, the program helped her take her first steps towards an exciting new career.
