The Pathway Master's — a smarter route to your degree.

Can't meet direct university entry requirements? Our South Australia Pathway Program gives you the same Master's degree — at a significantly lower cost and with stronger academic support.

The Pathway Master's Degree is a two-year packaged program developed exclusively for South Australia, in partnership with Ironwood Institute. You complete Year 1 as a Graduate Diploma at Ironwood, then transition seamlessly into Year 2 at your chosen Australian university.

This is not a lesser qualification. You graduate with two credentials, the same post-study work rights as any direct university student, and — in many cases — at a significantly lower total cost with scholarship options available.

📋
Single student visa

One CoE, one visa application covers the full two-year program. No mid-course visa complications.

🎓
Two qualifications

Graduate Diploma from Ironwood + Master's Degree from your partner university — two credentials, one journey.

💰
More affordable

Smaller class sizes, scholarship options, and lower Year 1 fees make this genuinely accessible.

✈️
Full post-study work rights

Identical work rights to direct university graduates — 2–4 years to build your Australian career.

🏛️ Partner Institution: Ironwood Institute, Adelaide

Ironwood's smaller class sizes and dedicated academic support build the foundation you need for university-level study — especially if you're transitioning from a different education system.
