Canning College has been preparing students to achieve entry into Australia’s leading universities since 1982. As a specialist international education institution, it has established a strong reputation for providing overseas students with the personal and academic development and pathways required to succeed in tertiary studies, including through the College’s signature programs.

In the five years from 2019, the College’s expert staff focused exclusively on providing pathway-to-university programs for international students. Flexible entry points into Canning College’s academic pathway programs allow international students to start studying in January, April, Mid-year and October, which gives them the opportunity to enter university degree courses sooner.
