Bachelor of Arts Bradford Foundation Studies Program
The University recognises a music specialisation pathway for the Bachelor of Arts Bradford Foundation Studies Program with effect from 1 January 2015. Applicants for transfer into the Bachelor of Music at the conclusion of the Foundation Studies Music Specialisation Program must meet all requirements of the Foundation Program and the usual audition via the Conservatorium of Music to determine their readiness to transfer from the Bachelor of Arts to the Bachelor of Music. Admission requirements (as set out in the Bradford proposal documentation) are: The same minimum academic and English language admissions criteria would apply as for other Foundation Studies students. In addition, the student’s suitability for undertaking music studies would need to be determined, with regard to:
knowledge of musical theory and other formal aspects; and
ability with their instrument/vocal specialisation. This would be determined by, respectively:
a written diagnostic test, designed by University Senior College academic staff in collaboration with the Elder Conservatorium and delivered by Bradford College representatives in secure environments; and
a video of a sample piece of music performed on the potential student’s instrument/vocal specialisation, assessed by the Elder Conservatorium.
In addition to meeting Foundation Studies course requirements, to obtain an offer for their Bachelor of Music, entry criteria specific for the Bachelor of Music would also apply. The student would undertake the usual performance audition at a time to be determined by the Elder Conservatorium, envisaged to occur towards the end of the Foundation Studies Program.

Inherent requirements for the Bachelor of Nursing, Honours degree of Bachelor of Nursing and Master of Clinical Nursing
Nursing – Inherent requirements
The inherent requirements for nursing programs at the University of Adelaide help identify those skills and attributes that will enable a student to become a registered nurse. Nursing is a complex and demanding profession that requires an appropriate level of behavioural, cognitive and physical ability to ensure the delivery of safe and effective care. Nurses work closely with people at the most intimate and challenging stages of their lives and as such need to have insight to their own personal and professional capacity. The nursing programs which lead to registration require a high level of commitment to the substantial and compulsory clinical placement schedule and the high academic standard expected. Students will be required to attend placement experiences that may take place outside of the normal academic year and require attendance at metropolitan, rural and possibly remote locations. The School of Nursing encourages and supports diversity in its student group. In particular situations there may be limitations to a student’s capacity to meet the inherent requirements of the program. The School will endeavour to make responsible adjustments where appropriate, but it is important for students to understand that in some situations, no reasonable adjustments can be made that will ensure the inherent requirements of the program can be met. In such a circumstance the student will not be able to complete the program. Legal
Nursing students, who will be registered by the School of Nursing with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), must fulfil a range of legislative requirements to enable the safe delivery of care. Students will need to demonstrate knowledge, understanding and compliance with Australian Law, professional regulations and standards and scope of practice. Compliance with professional regulations and Australian Law ensures that students are both responsible and accountable for their practice. All legal requirements for practice must be met regardless of any adjustment made for any student. Behavioural
Nursing students will be exposed to a range of unexpected and emergency situations requiring personal resilience and a consistent and sustained level of physical and mental performance that supports an appropriate response to provide safe and effective care. For example students will need to:
be receptive and respond appropriately to constructive feedback
cope with their emotions and behaviour effectively when dealing with individuals in the clinical setting
be able to provide a caring and therapeutic approach to the needs of all persons regardless of gender, race, sexuality and or religion
have a capacity for self-awareness to monitor their own health and wellbeing. Communication
Communication is a fundamental and necessary aspect of nursing practice. Students must have the skills and ability to communicate precisely and safely and in a way that displays respect and empathy to others and develops trusting relationships. For example students would need to be able to:
use clear and precise English language speaking and listening skills
document observations clearly and unambiguously
listen clearly and communicate with people from a wide range of cultural backgrounds
read and analyse complex health related terms
recognise and respond appropriately to cues in the clinical environment. On completion of the program, students must be aware of the registration requirements for English Language competency in Australia as a registered nurse with the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia. http://www.ahpra.gov.au/Registration/Registration-Standards/English-language-skills.aspx Cognitive
Nursing students must be able to think critically to analyse, synthesise and evaluate complex oral, written and visual information. This analysis will be used to solve problems, provide for clinical reasoning and enable the provision of timely and relevant interventions. For example students will require:
numeracy and literacy skills to perform accurate drug calculations
the ability to apply knowledge of anatomy and physiology to accurately measure and record observations of patients and symptoms
the ability to retain information, processes and procedures to provide a range of nursing interventions
the ability to apply knowledge of policy and procedures in the clinical setting. Sensory
Nursing students will need to be able to recognise and respond appropriately to non-verbal cues across all age ranges. Observational skills (vision, hearing, smell and tactile) are required as part of this program.
The University of Adelaide | Academic Programs: Non-Standard Admission Requirements 45
For example students will need:
visual acuity to ensure safe interpretation of medicines and labels
to accurately undertake a blood pressure measurement by auscultation
a sense of smell to identify infection and incontinence
tactile ability to determine the strength and characteristics of a person’s pulse. Motor
Nursing students will require an appropriate level of physical health which will allow them to stand for long periods of time and perform repetitive tasks that may require bending, squatting and kneeling. Students need to be able to perform tasks consistently and safely and not put themselves or others at risk of harm. For example students will need to have sufficient fine motor skills to:
operate health related diagnostic equipment and instruments
use hand eye coordination to complete tasks as necessary
perform and/or assist with therapeutic procedures
perform complex wound dressings. For example students will need to have sufficient gross motor skills to:
assist patients with transfers and mobilising
manoeuvre equipment in open and confined spaces
maintain balance while safely mobilising and transferring individuals or resources
provide emergency care including basic life support. Students who have concerns or questions about how their specific circumstances may impact on their studies, for example a disability or ongoing health condition should contact the School of Nursing or the Counselling, Disability & Elite Athlete Service of the University of Adelaide, to explore what reasonable adjustment may be possible. In situations where it is determined inherent requirements cannot be met, guidance is available through the University to explore other study options.
