You won’t be alone, your voice will countThere are a lot of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people studying at USQ and you’ll be part of the mob! We’re all working towards our future and you’ll find a lot of like-minded study friends.

Classes aren’t 9am – 5pmMost classes only last 2 hours and tutorials usually last an hour. This gives you time to focus on your future and get to know your classmates! There are no bells, roll calls or uniforms either.

Your class schedule won’t be Monday to FridayDepending on what you decide to study, you might only have to come to university 2 or 3 days a week. The other days can be used for study, spending time with family and friends, or doing something that you love like painting, singing or dancing, even a part-time job.

I hated high school, I’m gonna hate uni!University is not like high school. It’s better. It is a lot more fun and best of all, you get to choose your career at the end. You can be who you’re meant to be - not just another student waiting for that clock to tick to 3:00pm and the school bell to ring. There is no racing home from classes to do homework. Instead, have a coffee, a yarn and a study session with the USQ Mob.

Welcome to the beginning of your future, it’s going to be deadly!
