Understanding Admission Pathways Without a Completed Bachelor's Degree

Introduction

If you're looking to apply for a Master's program but haven't completed your Bachelor's degree, there are alternative pathways available. This article explains the options of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and Performance-Based Admission.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

RPL allows candidates to apply for admission based on significant work experience and professional certifications, even if they haven't completed a formal Bachelor's degree. Typically, around 5 years of relevant work experience is required.

Performance-Based Admission

This option does not require a completed Bachelor's degree or extensive work experience. It allows you to begin your studies and later switch to standard admission once your Bachelor's degree is completed.

Next Steps

• Evaluate your professional experience and certifications to determine if they meet the RPL requirements.

• Consider applying for Performance-Based Admission if you do not meet the RPL criteria.

• Submit an Eligibility Check or RPL application if you believe you qualify.
