Should I study online or on-campus?

Really, this is a question only you can answer.

At USQ it doesn’t matter if you are on campus or online, in Toowoomba or in Malaysia, you will receive the same one to one support that we are renowned for.

But from a practical sense, there are three main modes of studying:

on-campus
off-campus via distance education
online

or a combination of all three modes.

On-campus study

On-campus study involves attending lectures and tutorials each week on campus. This mode of study means you interact with other students and lecturers face-to-face on a regular basis.

Off-campus study via distance education

Off-campus study via distance education means you are provided with all your study materials throughout a semester by post (mail) and online. These materials are divided into comprehensive week-by-week guides, but you have the flexibility to work through these materials at your own pace during the semester.

At USQ our distance education students have access to a high level of support to make sure you succeed in your studies.

Online study

Online study is similar to off-campus study via distance education, but the materials are provided solely via the Internet.

USQ is an international leader in distance education and approximately 75% of our students study by distance or online education. We currently provide distance or online education for students in more than 80 countries.
