The TER cut-off for combined courses is generally higher than that of a single degree. If you are not studying for a combined degree and you still want to study Arts courses, you can do a Diploma in Arts, Modern Languages or Music.
Pursuing a diploma will usually involve an extra year of study.
Arts is a great course to combine with others and means you can graduate with two degrees in less time than it would take to complete them separately.
This is because some units in one degree will be cross-credited to the other, meaning you take fewer units. You will also overload (take more than the normal four units) in some semesters.
You will need to meet the entry requirements of both degrees.
