College Student Support Officers

There is a Student Support Officer (SSO) specific to your College on each of the main campuses, whose role is to help you succeed at university by acting as the first point of contact in managing your study load and accessing support services.

The full list of SSOs can be found on the Student Support webpage under 'Student Support Officers'.

First Year Experience Coordinators

Every course at JCU has a designated First Year Experience Coordinator (FYEC) who is an academic staff member that teaches commencing students and understands the challenges new students often face when transitioning into university. Your FYEC can provide advice about your course, support service referrals, and strategies for success in your studies.

As an off-campus student, you can contact the FYEC for your course at either the Cairns or Townsville campuses.

Student Mentors

Make sure you sign up to JCU’s award winning Student Mentor Program, where new students are matched with an experienced second or third-year student from the same course of study.

Student Mentors can guide you through your first study period as a university student and help you settle into university life.

For further information, email offcampus-studentmentors@jcu.edu.au
