Pathways

The Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) opens the door to university, higher-level TAFE or VET certificate courses, apprenticeships, traineeships, and the workforce.

Year 12 students are provided with the opportunity to fast-track their university studies by completing up to two first-year university subjects through the Higher Education Studies Program. This Program is a partnership between the VCAA, several leading Victorian universities and Year 12 school students. Successful completion of this Program enables students to enter second-year university studies in a specified course following Year 12.
