USC will throw open the doors of its main campus at Sippy Downs for its annual Open Day on Sunday 21 July.

Thousands of prospective students from across Queensland and beyond are expected to attend the event from 9am to 1pm to explore the campus and its facilities, discuss study options with lecturers, and learn about university life from current students.

Open Day will include a special presentation on balancing study with other commitments such as work, finances and family, and another session on how to choose the right degree and make the most of university life.

USC academics will provide one-on-one advice about various study programs, while Student Support staff will help with tailored information on applying for university, scholarships, financial support and even studying overseas.

Visitors can also take self-guided tours of USC’s teaching spaces, research facilities and sporting and social venues, and attend a session that outlines the study opportunities that will be available at USC’s new Moreton Bay campus at Petrie from next year.

Online registration is available at usc.edu.au/open-day and free buses will be available on the day from USC’s campuses at Caboolture and Fraser Coast.

USC will stage another Open Day event for Moreton Bay residents at USC’s Caboolture campus on Sunday 4 August.
