USQConnect

USQConnect is the gateway, or portal, to USQ's electronic systems. The links beyond the portal allow you to access:

  • online study materials
  • online enrolment
  • personal details including contact information
  • USQ-based email accounts and much more.

You can think of USQConnect as a door that leads to several underlying systems, including USQStudyDesk, USQAdmin and USQAssist that are personalised to you and your program.

This integrated approach means you are assured of wide-ranging, up-to-date information via a consistent and easy-to-use interface.

How do I access USQConnect?

The USQConnect service can be accessed from any computer via the Internet at http://usqconnect.usq.edu.au using your USQConnect username and password to log on to the system. Your password is included on your Letter of Offer (new students) or Letter of Reinstatment (returning students). Continuing students will retain the same password as the previous year.
