The University of Adelaide College is not a university but a pathway institution affiliated with the University of Adelaide, a public university in Australia. The college offers foundation studies, diploma programs, and degree preparation courses designed to help students transition into undergraduate or postgraduate studies at the University of Adelaide.
As an extension of the public university, it operates under its governance but focuses on preparatory education. While it charges tuition fees like private institutions, its close ties to a public university distinguish it from purely private entities. Its primary role is to support international and domestic students in meeting university entry requirements.
