• Certificate IV in Interior Decoration: Students who have completed a nationally recognised Certificate IV in Interior Decoration will receive credit for four subjects, covering the entire first semester of the degree. This allows you to complete the Bachelor of Interior Design in just two and a half years (full-time).

• Diploma of Interior Design: Students with a nationally recognised Diploma of Interior Design will receive credit for nine subjects, encompassing the entire first year of the degree plus one subject in second year. This reduces the time needed to complete the Bachelor of Interior Design to two years (full-time).

• Diploma of Building Design: Students who hold a nationally recognised Diploma of Building Design will receive credit for five subjects distributed across the first, second, and third years. As a result, you can complete the Bachelor of Interior Design in three years with a reduced study load.
