From High School to an Australian University —
2.5 Years Faster. Up to A$45,000 Cheaper.

The math every parent should see

*Based on the program provider's official 2026 comparison using Macquarie University Bachelor of Business fees. Most Australian and Singaporean bachelor degrees are 3 years (24 subjects) — one year of credit means your child starts as a second-year student. Credit and admission are always subject to each university's requirements, grades and English level.

What the package includes — everything, one fee

• Eligibility assessment & academic mapping — we review your child's grades, English level and target countries, and build a personalised university map (Australia, UK, Singapore, Canada, Europe and more)
• Enrolment into the 36-week online Pathway Diploma (BSB50120, Australian government-accredited) — 2 hours per week, live on Zoom, fully compatible with high school; parents track progress in real time
• University application & placement — shortlisting, documents, applications, offers, credit negotiation
• Student visa prepared and lodged by a Registered Migration Agent (MARN 0637738) — not a "consultant", a registered practitioner regulated by the Australian government
• Pre-departure & arrival support — accommodation guidance, airport pickup arrangement, and our physical offices in Sydney & Melbourne your child can walk into any time
• Parent updates in plain English at every milestone

Why families trust ICN

ICN (International Communications Network) has guided international students into Australian institutions for over 20 years, with offices in Sydney and Melbourne — not a website, a real team on the ground. Visa work is performed by a Registered Migration Agent (MARN 0637738), which under Australian law is required for anyone charging a fee for immigration assistance. Many "education consultants" cannot legally do what we do in-house.

Real outcomes

One student who started the diploma in Grade 10 held a Letter of Offer from a leading Australian university by Grade 11, and went on to receive 6 months of credit plus a 30% scholarship at UTS (University of Technology Sydney). Others have entered La Trobe and UNSW directly from the program. Individual results — outcomes depend on grades, English and university requirements.

FAQ

Will this disrupt my child's current schooling?

No. The diploma is one live 2-hour online session per week for 36 weeks, with multiple intake dates and pause options around exam periods.

Which universities offer formal credit transfer?

In Australia: UTS (6 months), Western Sydney University, Macquarie University (up to 1 year), Torrens University and Southern Cross University, among others — plus pathway routes into the UK (including guaranteed-entry routes), Singapore, Canada, France, NZ, Spain, Taiwan, UAE, USA, Switzerland and 15+ affiliated institutions. Your child's map depends on grades and English.

What English level is required?

Classes are in English. We assess your child's level in the free assessment and, if needed, build an English preparation plan first.

We're not in Asia — do you work with families in South America, Europe, the Middle East?

Yes. The diploma is fully online with multiple time-slot options, and all ICN support is delivered remotely until your child lands in Australia.

Is university admission guaranteed?

No honest agent can guarantee admission. What the diploma provides is an established pathway network with credit arrangements — and we only recommend targets your child's profile realistically supports.
