For entry into most USC undergraduate degree programs, you need to have completed a minimum level of education similar to successful completion of Australian Year 12 with good grades.
Further studies, for example, a semester or more at college or university, can also be considered for entry and may give you credit transfer towards a degree.

If your qualification (grouped by country) is not listed, send the qualification transcripts with your application form to the International Office for assessment.
