Why choose Southern Cross University?

SCU is located at Australia's best address, the north coast of New South Wales. This idyllic region is famous for its wonderful natural environment. The rainforest, unspoiled beaches and colourful lifestyle are a magnet for young travelers from around the world.

The University's largest campus (5000 students) and its Study Abroad Program are located in Lismore, a city of 40,000 people with all of the services of a large city but with a far more relaxed lifestyle. It is perfectly located only 45 minutes from Byron Bay and 90 minutes by car south of the Gold Coast.

Byron Bay, Australia's most easterly point, is justifiably famous worldwide. It offers a cosmopolitan lifestyle set amongst some of Australia's best swimming and surfing beaches with whale-watching, scuba diving and hang-gliding just some of its attractions.
