University Preparation College (UPC), Bankstown, New South Wales
UPC attracts students from many countries around the world. Some students come to Australia to better their English skills and others seek vocational training to advance their careers back home or in Australia. The majority of UPC students seek further studies at university level.
At UPC you will have a chance to meet with students from all over the world, as well as local Australians. Our nationally recognised programs suit students seeking entry into Australian universities, or the competitive international employment market. Therefore study is both rigorous and serious. However, our pleasant environment and highly supportive academic staff will enable you to successfully attain your qualifications in the minimum time.
Academic Course Progress
Students are required to successfully complete various examinations and practical exercises in reading, writing, speaking and listening. These assessments are carried out throughout the course and a final examination is conducted in week ten.
The home of UPC is Bankstown.
Approximately thirty minutes by train from the city of Sydney, Bankstown is a city in its own right. It has a multicultural mix of people and, as a result, it is a special place with exciting restaurants and cafes, small to large shopping centres, cinemas, theatres and sporting facilities.
