Prepare and attending your Intensive School

5 steps to plan your attendance

Step 1

Confirm your Intensive School

When you enrol in a subject with an intensive school you will be automatically registered as an attendee. You may have an option of choosing a particular intensive school within the same period. Your subject coordinator will be able to provide more details.

Step 2

Organise your accommodation

On-campus accommodation options vary from campus to campus and are limited so book as early as you can.

To make a booking for your intensive school, log into the accommodation portal and click the temporary, book online option. Then, select the campus and room type that suits you. You’ll need to make your booking a minimum of 4 days prior to your arrival date.

Visit our accommodation website to see what staying on campus is like, what to pack and to explore our available rooms. Need more information or have a question about staying on campus? Get in touch with the Residence Life team.

Step 3

Order your Charles Sturt Card

You'll need an active student card to access some facilities such as the library and various buildings including accommodation. Some transport providers will also give discounts when you show your student card.

Apply for your student card now so that it can be sent to you before you leave for your intensive school.
Remember if you are staying on campus, you’ll need your student card to access your room.

Step 4

Plan your transport

There are various options to get to campus and get around once you arrive.

Step 5

Create a budget and start saving

You'll need to plan ahead to meet the costs of travel, accommodation and other factors associated with time away from home.

If you're eligible, you can apply for an Intensive School Grant or receive travel subsidies for your intensive school attendance.
