Checking Australian Universities in June? Are they closed?


Recommended Posts

lol no, winter breaks aren't until late June/early July, if I'm not mistaken. If you want to, you could look at the exact holiday dates on the websites of these universities. I believe with permission you should be allowed to look around the campus, but I don't know about being able to meet with the faculty, sorry :c

A bit confused with the collision of dates between winter recess and examinations written down here:

checked at http://www.unimelb.edu.au/unisec/PDates/acadcale.html

Monday 3 June – Sunday 28 July Winter Recess (8 weeks) Monday 3 June – Friday 7 June SWOT Vac Tuesday 11 June – Friday 28 June Examinations

But I think you are right, they are having the winter breaks until late June/ Early July...

I do think they have a winter break in late June/early July - and they also have stu vac/exams on in the same winter break. You might find it difficult to meet up with faculty members and/or students during that time, and you would definitely not see normal classes or lectures. However, I think you can still walk around and it might be possible to request a general tour. Definitely try and contact them to ask, because you don't know until then! :)

As an Aussie uni student, even though it will be exam time, this affects students, not staff. They may be on a reduced time table but international advisors and such should still be available. Most of the units have an international advice team you can contact? For instance, these guys at UQ!
