Higher Education Transfer

Keen to start down a fresh new study or career path with the University of Adelaide for 2021? Whether you’re currently studying with another institution or already here, we can help you make it happen.

  • Transferring from another institution

    There are just three easy steps:

    STEP 1: Choose your preferred degree
    We offer a wide range of world-class undergraduate and postgraduate degrees.

    Degree Finder

    STEP 2: Submit a new SATAC application.

    Depending on if, and how long, you’ve been studying, SATAC will then either assess:

    • Any qualifications you may have, including Year 12 (SACE or equivalent from elsewhere), TAFE / other VET courses or the STAT, or possibly your 2020 grade point average (GPA) once final results are released.
      This applies if, by the end of 2020, you will have been studying full-time (or part-time equivalent) for anywhere from six months to two years.

    • Your GPA alone
      This applies if you’ve studied full-time (or part-time equivalent) at the tertiary level for more than two years. In this case, you’ll find out if you’re successful after receiving your 2020 results.

  • You may even receive course credit

    If you’re invited to transfer from another institution into a University of Adelaide degree, you could be eligible to receive credit for your completed study.

    For an indication, try our credit transfer calculator. Or, to formally apply, visit the SATAC website.

  • Transferring from one Adelaide degree to another

    Are you already studying at the University of Adelaide, but keen to switch into another of our degrees? There’s every chance you can do so and be ready to start your new qualification from 2021.

    Simply choose your preferred degree, then apply to transfer. Applications open Monday 31 August 2020.

  • Preference not available?

    If the degree you’d like to transfer into doesn’t appear to be available for 2021 entry on the SATAC website, or on our internal transfer form, just let us know.

    We’ll do everything we can to help you on your preferred career path.
