Common Questions
The Associate Degree in Science at the University of Newcastle has a duration of 104 weeks (approximately 2 years).
The Associate Degree in Science is offered at two NSW campuses: the University of Newcastle's Callaghan campus and its Central Coast campus, both owned and operated by the provider.
The estimated total course cost for international students is AU$97,997, which includes tuition fees of AU$97,232 and non-tuition fees of AU$765.
No. Extended Post-Study Work Rights are only available for Skills Level 1 qualifications (Bachelor, Masters or PhD). As an Associate Degree, this qualification does not meet that criterion and is therefore not eligible for extended Post-Study Work Rights.
The Associate Degree in Science falls under the broad field of Natural and Physical Sciences (Field of Education code 01), with a narrow field classification of Natural and Physical Sciences (0100).

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
