Star has been created to allow year 11 to 13 students the opportunity to explore their potential and help give direction to your further education or employment.
A wide range of STAR programmes are available to let you “give it a go”, in a different learning environment. In this way students can often find a passion for a career or trade. Many Palmerston North, Whanganui & Wairarapa UCOL STAR students discover new talents and skills and most go on to UCOL’s full-time programmes.
All of our campuses provide Secondary Tertiary Alignment Resource (STAR) programmes.
All programmes are run by passionate qualified tertiary educators, so not only do students have the opportunity to discover their interests and potential, they also get to ‘have a taste’ of what tertiary education is like. It's about allowing students to gradually step into the adult world without fear of the unknown.
