Immediate family members pathway
We recognise the significant contributions that ADF's immediate family members make to our university and the broader community. The resilience, adaptability, and diverse experiences are invaluable. We provide a welcoming and inclusive environment for ADF family members, offering tailored support services facilitating a smooth transition into university life and supporting the achievement of educational goals.
As a partner, spouse or child (immediate family) of a former or current ADF member, you can access the support services available through our Veteran Tertiary Support Program and apply for direct entry to all our courses.
Applications from immediate family members of former and current ADF members are assessed case-by-case, typically requiring the related defence member to have served for a minimum of two years.
