in Australia will assess a degree individually depending on
which Pakistani Universities awarded it and the division
obtained. In addition, the University would consider, the
requirements of the course you wish to study and whether your

do not meet the requirements, a "Bridging" or Foundation
course may be necessary before the commencement of the main
course. Normally Foundation courses run for a year before the
actual course starts.
