2025 Option Selection Advice

2025 Pathways Map

• If a subject is orange, it is either a Unit Standards course or one that is designed to help your pathway to a job/career directly out of school and not to university.

• If a subject is green, then it has a UE pathway, meaning the skills learnt in it will help you make the transition to level three.

• If a subject is dark green, then it is a UE approved subject at level 3. You will need at least 3 of these if you want to gain entry to university.
