Full or part-time? You decide.

If you're a domestic student, most of our courses can be done full-time or part-time. Full-time students generally take four subjects per semester while part-time students study two or less. Not sure what’s right for you? Consider your other commitments – work, family, travel – and be realistic about what you think is achievable. Keep in mind that it’ll take longer to finish your course if you’re part-time.
