More Online University Events

COVID-19 hasn’t stopped universities running open day events this year – it’s just forced them to be creative regarding how they run them! I encourage all Senior College students and parents to consider attending as many of these events as you can, to get a feel for the different universities and get some of your questions answered about courses and university life. This year offers students and parents a unique opportunity to get to know universities outside our SEQ region and maybe think about going further afield for university study in the future.

The list below is a selection of virtual open day events that are currently confirmed. There is a link for each that will take you to a web page where you can register for updates as programs are finalised. Details on virtual events at other major universities are not yet available.
