1. Be prepared
Make sure you check USQStudyDesk before
making your way to campus. Depending on
what you are studying, your lecturer might
ask you to prepare by completing readings
or online quizzes. You may also be asked to
bring suitable clothing with you if you will
be working in laboratories or work rooms.

2. It’s all about the attitude
If you are lucky enough to already be working in the
industry you are studying, you may have learned some
of what you will cover during your time on campus.
It is important that even if you feel like you already
have the concepts covered, you take the time to
listen to and respect what your lecturers are teaching
you. They’re probably full of gems of wisdom and
ways of thinking that you’ve never considered.

3. Ask questions
No question is a silly question! Make the most of your
time with peers and lecturers by asking questions.
You are probably not the only one pondering the
problem and others will be grateful that you asked.

4. Network
When you graduate, your peers are
likely to become your colleagues, so
while you’re on campus, make time
to have lunch or catch up after class.
You might even meet people who
live near you that you can catch up
with after Residential School is over!

5. Support Services
There is plenty for online students to do on campus,
from attending social events to meeting with The
Learning Centre, Library or Student Services teams!
These teams can help you with understanding your
assignments, brushing up on your research skills, or
can provide you with personal or career support.
