Study Pathway Planning
Your Australian Study Journey Starts With the Right Plan
Choosing where and what to study in Australia can involve hundreds of courses, different entry requirements, different qualification pathways and very different costs.
Austrademy helps you understand your options and build a study plan around your education, English level, goals, budget and preferred destination.
Building Your Study Pathway
From Where You Are Now to Where You Want to Be
This is where we explain what Study Pathway Planning actually does.
We assess:
- Your current education and qualifications
- Academic entry requirements
- Your intended level of study
- Whether direct entry is possible
- Whether a Foundation, Diploma or other pathway may be required
- How qualifications can connect to further study
- Previous study and potential credit considerations
- Expected overall study duration

Every student starts from a different point. We help map out the academic steps between your current education and the qualification you want to achieve in Australia.
Who You’ll Speak With

Start With Someone Who Understands International Education
Your free consultation is more than a general enquiry call. You will speak with an ICEF-certified education counsellor who will take the time to understand your academic background, study interests, English level, budget and plans for studying in Australia. The purpose of the consultation is to help us understand where you are today before we begin identifying suitable study pathways and education options.

Understanding the Australian Education Pathway, Diploma to PhD
Australia has different levels of qualifications, and understanding how they connect can make planning your studies much easier. Depending on your previous education and entry requirements, you may enter at different points and progress to higher qualifications over time.
Diploma → Bachelor
Bachelor → Master
Bachelor (Honours) → PhD
Your English Can Be Part of Your Study Pathway Too
Meeting the academic requirements for a course does not always mean meeting its English-language requirements. If additional English preparation is needed, we can help you understand how English study may fit into your overall study pathway.
