Student Success services

The Student Success team is committed to providing high-quality services that encompass academic excellence, cultural enrichment and personal and professional development opportunities.

We are a dedicated new team with a shared purpose in helping you mob stay on track with your studies. Each team member has been assigned a faculty.

Please make sure you familiarise yourself with your support team today (see below).

The team consists of experienced staff from a wide range of professional and academic backgrounds who are committed to supporting students to reach their academic goals in a welcoming and inspiring environment.

Student Success assists and supports Indigenous students with personal support and counselling, professional development, work experience and career opportunities, learning support and tutoring, scholarships and financial assistance, accommodation, enrolment, and program and course selection (you can also contact us for advice on admission pathways).

We also make referrals to other areas of the UQ community, for example to advocacy, counselling and/or disability services.
