Thanks @JasonClareMP for visiting CUC @countryuc and expanding the program to increase access to higher education across Regional Australia. It was great to host you!
I’m so proud of the CUC staff, boards and communities. Their community-led approaches to HE are changing lives.
There are currently 34 University Study Hubs across the country.
We are doubling them to bring university closer to more Australians.

A regional student’s place of study has a significant impact on where they live and work after graduation.
Research shows that if a student studies regionally, then there is a 70% chance that they will continue to live and work in the same area.
