TAFE/VET Credit Calculator

At the University of Adelaide we appreciate the hard work that you have already done in gaining qualifications through VET providers such as TAFE SA. In many cases we are also happy to give you credit through our growing range of pre-approved pathways.

There are two types of credit:

  • Specific credit - awarded in recognition of prior learning which has equivalent outcomes and assessment to a University of Adelaide course.
  • Unspecified credit - awarded in recognition of prior learning undertaken at a particular Australian Qualifications Framework level (e.g. Certificate IV, Diploma).

Please search the credit calculator below to see if you might be eligible for specific credit. Alternatively, have a look at the table which outlines our Unspecified Credit Pathways.
