Your child's educational journey is of utmost importance. As parents and guardians, it is essential to be well-informed of various opportunities and pathways that lie ahead.
Here at Southern Cross University, we are organising an exclusive session designed specifically for parents and students in Years 11 & 12 and encourage you to join us for an upcoming Parents Information Evening at Southern Cross University's Northern Rivers campus.
Our expert panel of speakers will include experienced university advisors and successful student ambassadors, who will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
Refreshments and canapés will be served during the event, providing an excellent opportunity for networking and building connections with other parents who share similar aspirations for their children's future.
The session will cover a wide range of topics, including:
How to apply: gain insights into the step-by-step application process for Southern Cross University and understand the various options available for your child's chosen field of study. We are here to provide assistance in ensuring a smooth transition for your child from High School to University.
Taking advantage of our early entry application: Take the stress and cost out of the application process with our Early Offer program. Find out how your teen's current grades and a recommendation from their school can secure their place before their Year 12 results are released so they can focus on their final year.
Why SCU: hear about our Southern Cross Model, a deeper learning experience in focused six-week terms. Students have a greater sense of momentum as they achieve milestones quickly with higher rates of unit completion and overall grade averages, and greater flexibility.
Scholarship opportunities: find out how your child can leverage their achievements and talents to access financial support for their university journey.
Understanding costs: take an in-depth look at the costs associated with university education, including tuition fees, textbooks, living expenses and how to plan for these financial commitments.
Support services: discover the services accessible to all Southern Cross University students and can be accessed in person and online. From dedicated first-year support to help make the transition easier, peer mentoring, career advice, extra academic preparation, counselling sessions, and even small student loans.
Uni life and global opportunities: find out about our range of social and competitive sports programs and student association events and activities that encourage connection and friendship while your teen makes the most of this incredible chapter! Find out about our study abroad programs that open doors to a world of exciting opportunities, allowing them to diversify their academic journey, explore new horizons, forge meaningful friendships, and establish a global network.
