What is recognition of prior learning?

Recognition of prior learning (RPL) turns your study and life experience into course credit – credit that can reduce your study duration, as well as the cost of your tuition. We consider all university, TAFE and private tertiary education provider qualifications from around the world, as well as informal learning that relates to your course.

Understanding RPL

An introduction to understanding and applying for recognition of prior learning at Deakin.

How to apply for RPL

Applying for RPL is easy at Deakin. If you’re a future student, RPL is automatically assessed with your course application. That means where you can demonstrate that you’ve achieved learning outcomes equivalent to learning outcomes in the course or units you’re applying for, you may be given RPL credit. Learning outcomes may include your previous study, as well as any relevant knowledge and experience.

Future students

When you apply for a course at Deakin, we’ll use the information provided in your application to assess your eligibility for RPL – no further action is required.

What if I want credit for specific units?

To apply for credit for specific units from a previous course, simply upload the information and supporting documents required with your course application.

What happens next?

If you receive an offer for a course at Deakin, your credit entitlement will be confirmed with your offer, or as soon as possible.

Current Deakin students

Simply complete the online RPL application form to apply. While applying, you'll be prompted to upload relevant supporting documents.

International students

Application time limitations and deadlines

Your application will be assessed if your qualifications were completed within the last 10 years. Shorter time periods apply for some courses. Please check course, discipline or professional accreditation information or contact our Domestic Admissions team.

If you’re seeking RPL after enrolling in your course, please apply as soon as possible. RPL applications that apply to units in the current teaching period must be submitted by the first day of Week 1.

Supporting documents for your RPL application

When you apply, you’ll need to provide supporting documents relevant to the type of previous study or experience you’d like assessed. Supporting documents like transcripts, a reference from an employer and statements (where appropriate) give your application the best chance of success.

How much credit can I get?

For most courses, Deakin policy requires that at least one third of the course needs to be completed at Deakin in the current course. Where this is not the case, the credit limit is detailed in the following table or in course, discipline or professional accreditation information. Please remember limitations do apply and are dependent on the requirements of external accrediting associations.

Type of course	Maximum credit you can receive	Minimum credit you must undertake
Associate degree (16 credit points)	10 credit points	6 credit points
3-year bachelor degree (24 credit points)	16 credit points	8 credit points
4-year bachelor degree (32 credit points)	21 credit points	11 credit points
Graduate certificate (4 credit points)	2 credit points	2 credit points
Graduate diploma (8 credit points)	4 credit points	4 credit points
Masters degree (coursework) (12 credit points)	8 credit points	4 credit points
Masters degree (coursework) (16 credit points)	10 credit points	6 credit points

^{This table is a guide only and credit limitations are subject to course rules.}

The total credit given can include combinations of specified and unspecified credit for individual units and block credit.

When deciding how much credit is appropriate and the level of learning that should be demonstrated, our assessors need to ensure that the integrity of the course is maintained and that your studies aren’t disadvantaged. You’ll still need to successfully complete sufficient units at the appropriate AQF level to demonstrate achievement of the course learning outcomes.
