Extension Studies at Flinders University

The Extension Studies Program provides a taste of university life for high-achieving South Australian senior secondary school students while also giving the opportunity to complement and extend their SACE studies.

It will suit students who have the maturity to adjust to a university learning environment. University study demands more independent learning through a student’s own reading, research, online work, and writing.

Participation requires considerable commitment and it is recommended that students seek guidance from their support network beforehand to make sure it will be manageable.

Students can enrol in a maximum of one university topic per semester while completing Year 12.

Applications for 2026 will open on 17 November 2025 and close on 6 February 2026.
