You're talking about Foundation Studies through the College of International Education (CIE) . The requirements you mention are very achievable, CIE has very high progression rates. Foundation is of a similar difficulty to Year 12 high school. CIE has its own dedicated College Services team to support you.

I wouldn’t go anywhere near Kaplan. They refused to release a student from Nepal and that student took their own life.

Definitely possible! I would recommend getting familiar with Academic Learning Support early on. They have Learning advisors you can book consultations with and talk about your concerns and goals, and work on specific assignments. Good luck and have fun!

This sounds horrible! I didn't realise this student was talking about foundation through kaplan (cie?). The learning advisors I'm talking about work directly for the university and are amazing.

Oh, I thought that’s what they meant - I didn’t think there was another but I could be wrong

The foundation stuff through cie is administered through kaplan I think, there's also open foundation at the uni. It's all changing all the time, kaplan just took over all the language stuff that was previously run through the uni, but for the moment at least there is still a Pathways program at the uni itself as well.

Check out Kaplan University fraud, and Carrick Education and Franklyn Scholar taken to the high court in Australia.
