Former Lake Tuggeranong College student Georgia is now studying law, politics and international relations at UC.
She said the thought of attending university is an exciting time, but for some it can seem overwhelming, stressful and out of reach.
“I know that as a student, that thinking about your future, applying for university and not knowing what to expect can feel very daunting,” Georgia said.
“However, I truly believe that this partnership will help other students feel supported and guided as they plan for life after college.”
The University of Canberra Southside Hub is available to all college students and prospective university students in the region.
