I have a TAFE or VET qualification

Use the prior learning you received in your VET/TAFE qualification to receive a pathway into 番茄社区 courses.

An existing qualification from a VET or TAFE provider, such as a Certificate III, Certificate IV or an AQF Diploma, means you may be eligible for guaranteed entry into certain 番茄社区 Bachelor's degrees.* Your qualification may also count as credit toward your chosen course, helping you complete your studies sooner.
