- Flexible degree programs, as well as short term industry-relevant programs, are available
- There is something for everyone. Australia is known for its pathway options that lead to undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. Hence students, who have not done well in their year 12 or even in graduation, still have options to study further.
The Application process generally is the same for most of the Universities however it may vary slightly from one University to other.
3RDiConsulting assists the students to compile and process all the necessary documents to be sent to the Universities. The Universities generally take approximately 2 days to 4 weeks to respond and to process an application. Hence we advise the student to apply as soon as possible.

Incorrect or incomplete checklists will not be processed by the universities and may lead to delay in processing your applications. Your counselor will provide you all the forms and will submit the same to the University for the Assessment.
