    Hello! I'm planning to apply for a Bachelor Degree in USQ as well, can I ask for your email for further questions? If you don't mind, it would be a big help for me. Thank you. God Bless.

    Hello po Miss @agentKams I am in the midst of applying my intention to study in USQ. I am finishing up the GTE section and quite unsure what answers to put in section " 4. Please explain your domestic arrangements while you are undertaking your program (i.e. Will your spouse and children join you? If so, when?). Should I mention that I will intend to bring my husband and 13 child. Also, one more thing, July 2019 intake is fast approaching and parang alanganin sa fund or alanganin sa visa application. Let's say if I continue to proceed with my July intake tapos na-approve ang Student visa lets say during the class starts, can I enroll on Feb intake?

    Or, if I plan to apply Feb 2020 program, is it ok to apply to USQ as early as now? What can you advise? thanks po!

    @TheRealMe24 just be truthful sa GTE, if you plan to take your family with you, just put it in your answer.
    You can defer your intake, pero kung alam mo nang alanganin just do the next sem. I advise start sa Feb 2020 program kasi not all courses are being offered on-campus sa 2nd sem. anong course mo?

    @agentKams Ok po, I will put that in my GTE to bring my family. I see, upon checking naman online, available naman sila both on 2nd Sem July and on Feb 2020 intake. Undergrad BSIT and planning to take Master of Computing Technology - Networking and System Security and Applied Research.

    If I have questions, ill PM you po. Thanks a lot!

    @nyhn you can read all the requirements in their website: https://www.usq.edu.au/study/international/things-to-know important may proof ka ng english language test. What do you mean by strict? lahat po ng universities my standard na sinusunod, grading system assessment etc. if you have other questions just pm me. :)

    we are planning to create an alumni chapter for all Filipinos who have studued in USQ. One of our aim is to connect with future and current students to see what available support we can provide.
