Diploma in Arts

Summary

Broaden your worldview and start your university studies with our Diploma in Arts. It’s a great way to try different subjects and prepare yourself for further study.

Interested in communication studies, education, hospitality, language and culture, Māori and indigenous development, or social sciences? Our Diploma in Arts is perfect if you’re not entirely sure what to expect from uni or missed out on getting into your dream degree.

You’ll take the same courses as our first-year bachelor’s degree students, and study in a supportive environment with additional academic and student support. Once you’ve completed your diploma you can then move into Year 2 of our Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Communication Studies or Bachelor of International Hospitality Management, which means you can still complete your chosen bachelor’s degree in three years.
