Campion College welcomes students from a diverse range of educational backgrounds each year, including a strong cohort of home-schooled students. Since our founding, home-schoolers have made up a significant part of our community—with many among our highest academic achievers, including recipients of the prestigious College Medal.
For admission to the Bachelor of Arts in the Liberal Arts, Diploma of Liberal Arts or Diploma of Classical Languages, a candidate must be at least 17 years of age on January 1 in the year he or she enrols. Admission is based upon an applicant’s performance across the following three components:

Admission Pathways
There are a variety of admission pathways for home-schooled applicants including:
Campion College invites Year 11 and 12 students, as well as home-schooled students in their final years of schooling, to attend our Early Scholars Intensive. This intensive allows students to complete a first-year (Level 100) university unit and use it as an alternative admission pathway into Campion College’s Bachelor of Arts in the Liberal Arts.
Participants will attend on-campus classes over five days during the school holidays, gaining a taste of university life in our unique academic setting.
