Eynesbury College

Who we are

Your direct pathway to all South Australian public universities

Eynesbury is your direct pathway to South Australia’s public universities. Since 1989, we have been offering exceptional programs that provide students with direct entry into degrees at The University of Adelaide, University of South Australia, and Flinders University.

Pioneering the specialist pre-university teaching model, Eynesbury ensures students are well-prepared for their academic journey. With intakes in February, June, and October for our Diploma and Foundation Studies Programs, you can choose a start date that fits your schedule and fast-track into your dream degree.

We also offer English Language preparation programs (ELICOS) to help students meet language requirements and transition seamlessly into Eynesbury programs or other institutions.

We look forward to welcoming you to Eynesbury!
