Real support<br />

The Study Abroad and<br />

<strong>Exchange</strong> team can<br />

help you with everything<br />

from the application<br />

process, enrolment,<br />

class information, and<br />

any support you may<br />

need while you are here.<br />

They will ensure that your<br />

transition to life as a QUT<br />

student is as smooth as<br />

possible.<br />

Orientation<br />

A specific orientation for Study Abroad<br />

and Inbound <strong>Exchange</strong> students<br />

takes place approximately two weeks<br />

before classes and is compulsory for<br />

all students.<br />

This session includes topics such as<br />

enrolment, computing access, faculty<br />

information, immigration regulations,<br />

health cover, QUT rules and<br />

regulations, tuition fees and refunds,<br />

and much more. Students will be able<br />

to meet with faculty advisers who will<br />

assist them in choosing and changing<br />

units.<br />

Social events<br />

The Study Abroad and <strong>Exchange</strong><br />

team also organise a weekend trip<br />

to North Stradbroke Island and<br />

a Brisbane River Cruise during<br />

Orientation Week, followed by a<br />

number of catch-up functions during<br />

the semester.<br />

QUT Study Abroad and<br />

<strong>Exchange</strong> Officer<br />

We recognise that students<br />

are excited about coming<br />

to Brisbane, but also a little<br />

nervous about organising<br />

classes and meeting people.<br />

You’ll hear from us via email<br />

when you’re first preparing to<br />

come and we’ll greet you as<br />

soon as you arrive on campus.<br />

We want to make sure you have<br />

the experience of a lifetime while<br />

you’re here, so you can come<br />

by our office anytime you have<br />

a question or just want to chat!<br />
