TFC graduation and further study

A special graduation ceremony is held at the end of the academic year, usually in late November or early December.

The TFC is a University Entrance qualification. Our graduates can apply for admission to a bachelors programme at the University of Auckland or another tertiary provider.

You must successfully complete all 8 courses in the Tertiary Foundation Certificate programme to be eligible to graduate.

To Be Advised

You are welcome to apply for admission to a University of Auckland undergraduate programme on completion of your TFC. We encourage you to apply for more than one programme in case you do not gain admission into your first choice.

It's best to wait until you know your TFC results before applying for any bachelor programmes. This means our system will recognise your University Entrance status. However, if there is an application deadline prior to your results being known, then do apply by that date. The BA, BSc and many other programmes have a closing date of early December, which leaves time for you to apply once you know your TFC grades.

Some undergraduate qualifications have higher entry requirements than others. We recommend you contact the relevant faculty before applying.

Please see here for TFC Entry requirements for further studies.
