Study Articles Is midyear entry for you
Study at Flinders University

Is midyear entry the right option for you?

If you haven’t quite got around to starting uni, there’s no need to wait until next year. Midyear entry is a great way to kick-start your studies. Why wait another 6 months when you can get ahead of the game now?

Here’s why you might want to consider opting for midyear entry at Flinders.

 

1. You took an extended gap year

If you recently finished high school, you might have decided to take a break from studying. And you wouldn’t be alone – around 1 in 4 school leavers now opt for a gap year. Whether you took time off to travel, earn money, or just relax, there’s no need to wait until the New Year rolls around before getting back to study. There’s no time like the present!

 

2. You missed out on a place in Semester 1

Perhaps you applied for Semester 1 entry but missed out on your first preference. No stress – many universities, including Flinders, allocate additional places for the Semester 2 intake. This gives you a second chance to secure a spot in your preferred course.

 

3. You can still graduate on time

While you might start your degree a little later than other students, this doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll graduate later than them too. Many midyear courses offer summer classes or intensives so you can get ahead and complete your degree sooner.

 

4. You can apply at any level

Whether you’ve completed year 12, studied at TAFE, or already hold a Bachelor’s degree, midyear entry is available at all levels. What works for one person may not work for another, which is why we provide various pathways into Flinders in Semester 1 and 2.
 

Midyear Information Session

There’s still time to apply for 2022, so if you’re unsure about your pathway into University, need help with your application or have some general course/admission questions, view our Study in 2022 Information Session below.
