COVID-19 (coronavirus) advice for the UQ community - STUDENTS - Study Abroad and Incoming Exchange Students

You can start your study with UQ online in Semester 1 if your preferred courses are available in External mode. Once the Government travel restrictions are lifted, you can travel to Australia to continue your studies. You will need a valid Student Visa to enter Australia.

If travel restrictions prevent you from travelling to Australia to commence your studies in Semester 1 and you do not want to study online, you can request to defer you studies to a future semester.

If you choose not to defer and cannot travel to Australia due to travel restrictions, UQ will provide you with a full refund of your deposit paid if you withdraw from UQ by 31st March, 2021.

Incoming Exchange has been cancelled for 2021. If you have already applied, we will withdraw your application. Depending on your circumstances, you may be able to apply for a future semester. Please consult with your home university regarding your options as you may need to be re-nominated.
