What are course packages?

At La Trobe, we’ve bundled some of our most popular undergraduate and postgraduate courses into packaged offers, giving you a clear and supported pathway from your first degree through to your next. When you accept a course package, you secure your place in two courses from the start, providing certainty in your study journey and, in some cases, opportunities for ATAR-free entry or advanced standing that can help you progress sooner. With a course package, you have the flexibility to remain at your chosen campus or move between La Trobe locations and study modes to suit your goals.

Why choose a packaged offer?

Once you’ve completed the undergraduate degree, admission into the postgraduate course is dependent on meeting the minimum published entry requirements for the postgraduate degree, this includes meeting additional requirements e.g. interview.
