I definitely recommend studying
maths as part of Foundation Year,
because it opened up many
choices for my destination degree.
I found it really interesting that
fundamental maths is not just
theory-based learning. I was also
able to learn how to use formulas
and where to apply them. (2020)
Sovannlee Jimmy Bunche
Student
I chose to study at Monash
College because it offers a
wide range of subjects.
I can mix and match the
subjects I want to study with
my prerequisites in order to
reach my destination degree.

Tan Jie Yu

One of my educational highlights
was definitely the teachers at
Monash College. They were really
passionate and helpful and even
gave us additional practices. (2020)
