When you step into your local CUC, you’ll be met by a welcoming community of staff and students in a safe and inclusive campus-like environment.

You will have the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals studying at universities across Australia whose higher education experiences are enhanced by the flexibility and convenience of a CUC.

The CUC values students’ individual qualities and unique backgrounds, providing tailored services, support, and facilities to meet the specific needs of regional students like you.

Student Services

From navigating your university’s learning portal and refining your study skills, to managing your health and well-being, the CUC team is here to help you.

Student Engagement

At the CUC, we appreciate that you may face additional challenges and stressors, including disability, financial constraints, and caring or work responsibilities.

The CUC team wants you to succeed and are available for a coffee and a chat, referral to university or other services, or to help you manage your study workload alongside other demands.

All of our Centre Managers are trained in mental health first aid and are committed to supporting your well-being.

Practical Support and Advice

For both current and future students, university administrative processes can be daunting and frustrating, particularly when you are studying remotely.

We can help with navigating university learning portals and connecting with the appropriate university services to meet your individual needs. This may include access and inclusion requirements; applying for extensions or special considerations; or referral to progression teams, library services, and other student supports.
Our team also assists students in finding and applying for scholarships.

Study Skills

Are you new to higher education, returning after an extended period or needing guidance around assessment tasks? Our Learning Skills Advisors can help you settle into study and become confident with academic and university processes.

 

Academic Skills

Academic programs range from workshops in referencing or essay writing, to one-on-one tutoring with our dedicated Learning Skills Advisors.

Study Spaces

If you need a quiet study space without the interruptions and competing demands of home, take a look around one of our well-equipped Centres. In each modern, purpose-built facility, you’ll find:

  • a dedicated quiet study room with computers and space to work on personal devices;
  • tutorial rooms which can be used for seminars, tutorials, workshops, exams, and group work; and
  • space for student collaboration and break out, including kitchens and outdoor spaces.

Since study in the daytime isn’t always possible, our Centres are open to registered students from 7:00 am to 12:00 midnight, seven days a week, and are staffed during business hours. Please check with your local CUC for their opening times.
