Pathway into the Bachelor of Business
UNIVERSITY ENTRANCE
As a school leaver, how can I meet University Entrance?
The AUT School of Business caters for the school leaver from Year 13 who does not meet University Entrance but wishes to study the Bachelor of Business (BBus) by offering a one semester pathway of study.
The pathway will enable students to develop the skills, capabilities and background knowledge to gain entry to and be successful on the BBus.
