Head Start
Are you a motivated, high-achieving Year 10, 11 or 12 student?
USQ Head Start is our academic extension program where you can study one university subject during a semester, allowing you to get a head start on your university studies early.
Why study Head Start?
Entry straight into USQ - Complete a course and gain entry into a related USQ degree! (Remember, you’ll also need to meet the degree pre-requisites). | ||
Get ahead - Prepare yourself for university by getting a feel for on-campus or online study, developing uni-level study skills and discovering more about your potential degree, all before you graduate Year 12! | ||
Gain credit - You may gain credit for the courses you pass, which means you’ll have fewer courses to study when you start your degree. | ||
Increase your QCE credits - Receive two credits towards your Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) for each USQ Head Start course successfully completed. You can receive a maximum of eight credits. | ||
Save money - The first course is free! Want to study more? Additional courses are offered at a discount. |
