At UNSW, intensive courses are designed to help students fast-track their studies by completing a course in a shorter timeframe. These courses are typically offered during the Summer term or other non-standard teaching periods such as T3C. Courses are taught over a shorter period, so you can expect your classes to be held more frequently and for longer durations each day. Exact class times and schedules will vary based on the individual course.
Students have access to the same support services as during regular terms, including academic advising and equitable learning support.
We are sending emails to eligible students only. Please check your emails and your spam/junk folders as communications may have been filtered out by your provider settings. If you haven’t received an email but believe you may be eligible, please contact the Future Student Enquiries Team.
