High School Graduate Program
If you are 12 years of age or older and want to study for longer than one year, then our High School Graduate Program is for you. This longer term program will give you the opportunity to pursue your individual academic interests and ambitions, gain a world class education and aim to graduate with the South Australian Certificate of Education. You can commence your studies at the beginning of any school term from Year 7 to Year 12. To enter directly into Year 12, you will need to have successfully completed Year 11 equivalent in your home country and provide evidence of your English proficiency if you are coming from a non-English speaking country or IELTS 5.5 or equivalent.
If you will be studying for one year or less, you can enrol in our High School Study Abroad Program or Regional Study Abroad Program.
Entry conditions
Academic requirements
To apply for the High School Graduate Program, you are required to have achieved passing grades in your main academic subjects.
English requirements
To help you succeed in your studies and adjust to life in South Australia, we may recommend that you undertake the intensive Secondary English Course (ISEC) as part of your study program. There is no additional cost if you undertake ISEC. Your progress will be monitored to determine if you require 1, 2, 3 or 4 terms of ISEC before entering mainstream classes.
Accommodation
We will arrange your accommodation with a caring homestay family who will help you experience life in South Australia. Alternatively, you can nominate to live with a relative or family friend.
