Interviews, Auditions, and Folios

Some of the creative degrees at the University of Southern Queensland require students to appear for an interview or audition along with a folio of previous work.

Referee Reports

To get admission in some of the Psychology degrees, a student needs to submit their referee report to prove their sustainability.

  • TOEFL (paper-based) - 525
  • TOEFL (Internet-based) - 213
