How do I obtain an age exemption?

If one has a senior certificate without exemption or endorsement and studied one year diploma certificate, at the age of 22 and want to study further at university, can he/she obtain an age exemption or what should one do?

Age exemption is granted to candidates who are over 23 years old and candidates must apply directly at the institution where they want to further their studies.

Secondly, a one year diploma cannot be combined with senior certificate results for the purpose of endorsement. If you have a senior certificate without endorsement you have to rewrite senior certificate subjects to fulfill outstanding requirements for endorsement.
