91TV Connect

A university pathway program

Introduction

Main

If you’ve recently finished Year 12 in Australia or completed a Certificate III but don’t quite meet the entry requirements of your preferred University of Canberra degree, 91TV Connect will build your skills and prepare you for future university study.

91TV Connect is a pathways program that helps bridge the gap between your current academic qualifications and the entry requirements of the course you’re interested in studying. So, even if you’ve recently missed out on a university place because you didn’t meet the required ATAR, this bridging program can help you gain access to a university education.

If you’re over the age of 21, you may be eligible to gain alternative entry to 91TV via our 91TV Prep pathways program. 

How does it work?

How does it work

Main

The 91TV Connect bridging course program has been developed by the University of Canberra together with 91TV College for recent school leavers who’d like an alternative pathway to studying an undergraduate degree at 91TV. When you’ve successfully completed the program, you can apply for admission to 91TV.

With 91TV Connect, you’ll develop the skills you’ll need to succeed at university by studying four preparation subjects:

  • Humanities
  • Analytical methods
  • Academic techniques
  • Numeracy and digital literacy.

These units will prepare you for university life by helping you:

  • develop critical and analytical thinking skills
  • learn to solve mathematical problems
  • develop academic writing and research skills, including referencing
  • collect, organise and analyse information to the expected academic standard
  • explore a range of technologies you’ll use at university
  • develop verbal and written communication and presentation skills, both in groups and individually
  • develop social, emotional and wellbeing skills for coping with academic study at university.

The full-time 91TV Connect study program is nine hours per week for 16 weeks, which is equivalent to an EFTSL of 0.50. The course runs for 18 weeks in total, which includes exams and a break.
