Credit transfers and recognition of prior learning
International Pathway Programs
Articulations and pathways are programs with institutions in Australia and overseas that allow international students to transfer credits from a partner university or college towards their UTS degree.
There are two types of programs, external articulations and pathway programs.
External articulations
External articulations are formal inter-institutional arrangements that allow students to complete part of their degree requirements at a one institution and transfer those credits to UTS where they complete their degree.
UTS holds agreements with a select list of offshore institutions for the recognition of prior learning arrangements.
Common types of the external articulation programs managed are:
2+2 Model
Enables students who have completed two years of studies at a partner institution to transfer academic credits equivalent to one year of a three-year program or two years of a four-year program at UTS.
Students then pursue the remaining two years of the three or four-year program at UTS.
1+2/3 Model
Enables students who have completed one year of studies at a partner institution to transfer academic credits equivalent to one year of a three-year or four-year program at UTS.
Students then pursue the remaining two or three years of the four-year program at UTS.
Pathway Programs
Pathways programs at UTS currently take the form of a 3+2 model and for some faculties (e.g Faculty of Law) 3+1.
3+2/1 Model
Enables students from selected universities to be admitted into a two-year Master’s program at UTS upon completing three years of a four-year program at home university.
International pathways play an integral role in UTS's internationalisation strategy. For enquiries on the pathway collaboration with UTS, please contact the team at pathways@uts.edu.au.
