A Foundation Year, offered at most universities in Australia and New Zealand, is the perfect bridge between High School and University for students who do not meet the academic entry requirements for Bachelor degree programs.

It is also possible to commence some courses at the start of second semester, typically in July. Some universities and colleges have strict admission requirements, while others are more flexible.
