Why QUT?

[Print-friendly version]

If you come from a low income background and would like to undertake one of QUT's undergraduate courses, you may be eligible for assistance through the University's special entry program, Q-Step.

Q-Step eligible applicants may receive admission bonuses of up to three (3) OP bands or six (6) ranks for entry to most undergraduate degree courses at QUT.

Q-Step has assisted over 2500 students since it commenced in 1992, and now Q-Step students are enrolled in all faculties of QUT covering most undergraduate courses.

Q-Step students who receive an mid-year offer at QUT will also receive a $500 starter bursary (available in week 1) to assist with education costs plus you are guaranteed a QUT Equity Bursary valued at $1000.

Visit www.equity.qut.edu.au/scholarships or phone (07) 3138 5886 for further information about these scholarship products.

real experiences

Tommy Pham

It was not easy getting into uni and I had to work hard to get a good OP. Because I'm from a low income family, the Q-Step program helped me gain admission into my course through an admission bonus on my OP, but it still comes down to me putting in the work.
