Entry requirements
In order to be accepted on to a degree programme, Australian universities ask international students to have qualifications that are equivalent to their Year 12 studies.

In the UK, the equivalent is GCE A levels – therefore, if you have done A levels, you should be considered for an undergraduate course at an Australian university. Most institutions will as for a minimum of 2 A levels and a maximum of 2 AS levels.
I'm a mature student - can I still apply if I don't have any A levels?
While some mature students take traditional qualifications such as AS and A levels, most colleges and universities will accept other qualifications such as Open University credits, Access Course credits and professional qualifications.

If you have not had any formal education for a few years or more, you may want to look into attending an Access Course at your local college to help refresh your study skills.
