Community Access Program (CAP) Subject

The Community Access Program (CAP) opens up study opportunities for single subject enrolment so that everyone has a chance to experience the benefits of expert tuition at the University of Melbourne.

CAP provides an excellent opportunity if you:

• Have always had the desire to learn something new.
• Have wanted to study but have had to postpone it for one reason or another.
• Want to advance your career.
• Are a student at the University of Melbourne or another tertiary institution and you wish to pursue an interest outside your current academic program.
• Want to enhance your academic record.
• Want to explore a potential area of study before making a commitment to more intensive study.
