Getting around campus can be tricky to navigate, particularly if you’ve never set foot on one. From lecture halls and study rooms to cafés and sporting facilities, it can initially be hard to find your bearings, let alone make sense of it all.
We’ve built our very own Campus to help you find your way – a digital hub featuring the latest content by the education writers and other experts at The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, Brisbane Times and WAToday.
Campus is a place to help you make the most of the next stage of your education – whether you are a senior school student, already at university or college, or thinking of returning to get further qualifications.

It’s where you’ll find articles to help you make decisions about courses, learn how to set yourself up for the career you want, plus discover the best ways to manage your study load, finances and social life. Life after high school can be daunting and there’s no perfect answer for what comes next.
Our writers will provide insights into their own tertiary experiences — what they did, what they wish they had done, and what they wouldn’t change.
Campus also features a unique interactive tool that allows you to search courses at universities and colleges across New South Wales and ACT, Victoria, Queensland and Western Australia. You can choose a state/territory, a type of course (eg arts, science, engineering etc), a possible selection rank such as 75-80, and see what and where you can study at a range of universities and colleges.

Give it a break: Comedian Lizzy Hoo says a Commerce degree can wait. In her gap year she mastered snowboarding, living off obscenely small amounts of cash and bailing friends out of jail. Valuable life skills, she argues.
Face time: Being allowed to attend lectures and tutorials online may be convenient, but is it time to bring back punitive measures so students attend university IRL?
