Timetables & calendars (VU Brisbane)

Access your timetables and key dates for our Brisbane Campus.

About our timetables

Our courses are offered in two structures:

  • Postgraduate courses are delivered via the 8-week VU Block Model®.
  • Diploma and undergraduate programs are delivered via the VU Block Model®.

All programs at VU Brisbane run in semester-based delivery.

Important terminology

When checking your course dates, please note that the administrative census date or last day to add units is the deadline for adding units each study period.

The census date is your last day to withdraw from your course or unit(s) without financial penalties.

If you miss census date but withdraw before the deadline for withdrawing without academic penalty (listed as WD deadline on this page) you will avoid the academic penalty (fail), but you will remain liable for the fees.

If you withdraw after the WD deadline you will fail the unit and also be liable for the fees. This is called withdraw with academic penalty (listed as WN fail on this page).

Australian Aboriginal flag Acknowledgement of Country

We acknowledge the Ancestors, Elders and families of the Kulin Nation (Melbourne campuses), the Eora Nation (Sydney campus) and the Yugara/YUgarapul and Turrbal Nation (Brisbane campus) who are the traditional owners of University land. As we share our own knowledge practices within the University, may we pay respect to the deep knowledge embedded within the Aboriginal community and recognise their ownership of Country.

We acknowledge that the land on which we meet, learn, and share knowledge is a place of age-old ceremonies of celebration, initiation and renewal, and that the Traditional Owners' living culture and practices have a unique role in the life of this region.
