Yes. A graduate diploma is commonly used as a stepping stone to a master’s in Australia. Universities often grant advanced standing for units completed in the graduate diploma, reducing the master’s duration and tuition, provided your grades and subjects align with the master’s structure. Many universities accept a graduate diploma as a pathway into a master’s, sometimes giving credit for units completed already.
This staged approach is popular for career changers and international students who want to test a field before a full degree. Confirm the articulation map and any GPA thresholds with the university. Completing the master’s can open post-study work visa options.
