Early Access to University Studies
Are you interested in studying first-year University units as part of your VCE in 2024? Early Access to University Studies (EAUS) are offered to high-achieving and high-ability senior secondary students who wish to have an early entry to University in their VCE program. They are first-year university subjects that are taken as part of a student’s VCE program, and are equivalent in duration and workload of a VCE Unit 3 & 4 sequence. Students who have completed an early access VCE course may be eligible to complete an early access university subject which provides a score as a sixth subject.
To find out more about these programs and what subjects are on offer, please access information through the following weblinks:
