Entering tertiary study

Is tertiary study right for your child?

Tertiary study may be for your child if:

  • they want a job that requires tertiary study (eg psychologist, engineer, forensic scientist)
  • they enjoy an academic challenge
  • they want to gain a broad range of knowledge and specialise later on (eg Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Communication or Bachelor of Arts)
  • they are aware of all the costs and funding options involved and still feel OK about how much they will need to spend.
