Welcome to UTS College

Whether you’re looking for a guaranteed* place in a UTS degree, or need to improve your English for university – we can help. 

At UTS College, you’ll benefit from a special combination of ongoing academic support, small class sizes and practical learning, designed to help you realise your full potential and give you the ultimate thrive factor at UTS.

Entry to UTS

Study a UTS College diploma or graduate certificate, and when you successfully complete your studies, you'll be guaranteed entry to the corresponding UTS undergraduate or postgraduate degree. In fact, most of our diplomas take you straight into the second year of your UTS degree, while our graduate certificates take you to the second semester of your UTS master's degree. So you're not wasting any time at all! Choose from diplomas in the areas of animation, business, communication, design & architecture, engineering, information technology or science and graduate certificates in the areas of accounting and finance, communication, and technology practice.

Big in support. Small in size

Whether you’re an international student adjusting to a new education system, or an Australian student seeking additional support, we want you to thrive while studying with us. That’s why we provide a wide range of support services tailored specifically to meet the needs of every student.

All support services are freely accessible to all UTS College students, and include our Learning Support Program, one-on-one tutorials, study skills workshops, and full-time dedicated Student Success Advisers. We also offer Studiosity, which provides anytime, anywhere academic support, live chat with tutors, and writing feedback within 24 hours. 

Plus, our classes are kept small – with no more than 20 students in a tutorial, giving you a personalised and interactive learning experience. 

Part of UTS

Our diploma and graduate certificate courses are designed in collaboration with UTS. This means the educational outcomes for diploma and graduate certificate students are the same as for first year students studying a UTS undergraduate degree, or for first semester students studying a UTS master's degree respectively. So you're getting the same world-class university standards right from day one of your studies.

Plus all academic students have access to world-class facilities at UTS, including the library, 24-hour computer labs and hundreds of student clubs and associations.
