Entry requirements

Entry to the Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma requires a bachelor degree with an overall grade point average of 4.5 or above (on a 7-point scale) and experience relevant to the music pathway selected by the applicant.

Applicants without a bachelor degree, with a bachelor degree with a grade point average of less than 4.5, or with a diploma from TAFE or an appropriate non-university private provider, may be required to enrol in the Graduate Certificate with the possibility of articulation into the Graduate Diploma if they achieve a grade point average of 4.5 or above in the Graduate Certificate. Applicants will only be permitted to enrol in a Graduate Diploma with the approval of the postgraduate coursework degrees coordinator, in consultation with the relevant subject area coordinator.

Masters applicants should possess either a three-year music degree with an overall grade point average of 5 or above (on a 7-point scale) or approved diploma in music from a university or documentary evidence of a successful career as a music industry professional considered equivalent to a three-year degree. Prior to admission, applicants must submit and have approved a project proposal.

Advanced standing for prior study and/or professional experience for the Masters is at the discretion of the postgraduate coursework degrees coordinator, in consultation with the relevant subject area coordinator. Advanced standing will normally only be granted for Masters-level courses, and will constitute no more than 48 credit points.
