These programs include the Tertiary Enabling Program (TEP), First Nations Pathways to University Programs, and UniBoost. TEP is an alternative route to gain entry into most CDU undergraduate degrees, suitable for those who don't meet ATAR requirements or haven't studied recently. The First Nations Pathways programs provide a culturally safe environment for Indigenous students to prepare for university. UniBoost offers subject-specific and general study skills support for both new and current students.
