When you’re a new student, there are all kinds of things you need to know, but might not think to ask. This section will fill you in on all the practical knowledge you need about UQ.

Rules, policies and procedures

When you accepted your offer, you confirmed that you'll comply with UQ's policies, procedures and rules. Make sure you're familiar with what's required of you.

See all UQ policies and rules

Respect at UQ training

To help ensure our campuses are a safe and respectful environment for students, all students need to complete a mandatory ‘Respect at UQ’ training module. For more information about the module, support available and deadlines for this semester, visit Respect at UQ.

Respect at UQ  

Academic calendar

During your time at UQ, you’ll need to remember a number of important dates every semester. These include:

• Orientation Week. This takes place in the week before Semester 1 and Semester 2. It's designed to introduce new students to social and academic life at UQ.
• Due date to enrol. You have to enrol in at least one course by this date, otherwise you may have to pay a fee and get special permission to enrol.
• Final date to add courses. This is the last day you can add new courses or swap courses. If you want to enrol in a new course after this date, you may have to pay a fee and get special permission to enrol.
• Due date for the payment of fees. All course fees and the Student Services and Amenities Fee have to be paid by this date. Late fees apply if you miss this date.
• Census Date. Fee liability and enrolment details for all students are locked in and finalised on this date. It’s also the last date you can apply for a HECS-HELP or FEE-HELP loan. You can’t enrol in courses after Census Date, or get a refund on your fees, unless there are extraordinary or exceptional circumstances.
• Last date to withdraw from courses without academic penalty. This is the last day you can withdraw from your studies with a grade of 'W' – Course cancelled without academic penalty. A 'W' won't affect your grade point average. If there are extraordinary or exceptional circumstances after this date, you may still be eligible to withdraw without academic penalty.

To see when these dates occur, check the  Academic Calendar  for semesters and trimesters or the Teaching Periods Calendar .

Faculties and schools

Your faculty is listed in mySI-net under the 'Enrolments' tile > 'Program summary' > 'Program owner'.

Schools are listed on each electronic course profile as the 'Coordinating Unit'.

For most students, schools can help with courses and your faculty can help with your program – but there are some exceptions and there is a bit of overlap.

For example, you might find that some courses aren't taught by schools: they're taught by faculties, centres or institutes.

In these circumstances, you should still contact the 'Coordinating Unit' listed on the course profile with any relevant questions about the course.

As we head towards a new semester, we encourage you to visit your faculty website so you can familiarise yourself with important contacts.

Faculty of Business, Economics and Law

Faculty of Engineering, Architecture and Information Technology

Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences

Faculty of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences

Faculty of Medicine

Faculty of Science

Getting to know our library spaces and resources is one of the best ways to prepare for study as a new student. 

Once you're enrolled, you can access library resources 6 weeks before the start of semester.

The  Digital Essentials modules are a great place to start building your skills to succeed at UQ.  Information Essentials and UQ Systems are the top modules to start with to help you navigate your first few weeks.

If you're studying on campus, we recommend you take a Library tour for an in-person introduction to library spaces and services. Our friendly student tour guides provide tours of different Library locations regularly during Orientation week. If you’re studying externally, our website has all the information you need.

See UQ Library’s services for students

Places to study on campus

Semester is in full swing. You’ve packed your bag, you’ve got an extra-extra-large coffee – but where can you go to study? There's plenty of places you can look:

• Check our maps to find communal study spots  at  St Lucia ,  Gatton ,  Herston  or Dutton Park .
• Library study spaces  are available  24 hours a day, 7 days a week  – and you can check study space availability online .
• Book a room in one of the libraries — use your student account to reserve your space .
