Prerequisites and assumed knowledge

Some degrees, including those in laws, education, paramedicine and occupational therapy, have subject prerequisites as a condition of admission. However, most Griffith degrees are based on assumed knowledge—that is, knowledge you are expected to have gained through certain subjects at school. It is not a requirement for your application or admission but will make the degree's material more accessible.
