SWOTVAC Begins
Great Court Race Women's Winners - 2024
Great Court Race Women's Winners - 2024

As we enter SWOTVAC, I would like to wish everyone all the best as you sit your various examinations throughout the period and reflect as grades start to come in. These periods can feel overwhelming, and extremely energising as academic workloads increase and relax. They can, for some, be moments of disappointment which also lead to reflection entering Semester Two.

I would also remind all Residents and Associates to be respectful throughout this period. Whilst exams may finish for you, others are still trying to prepare. The student handbook lays out the expectation around this as well as the College's right to ask Residents to leave the College after their final exam if they do not adhere to these expectations. 

Holiday Stays

Collegians are encouraged to start thinking about their holiday movements. Cost to stay at King's over the break is $220 per week and the kitchen will be closed. Please note the following points....

  • Direct Key Phone Access will be turned off through the period.
  • Fobs will need to be returned by midday Saturday 15 June (UQ Students) and 22 June (QUT and other institutions).
  • If your fob is not returned, you will be charged the holiday fee.
  • Holiday stays need to be logged through the Student Portal. Details on how to do this is below. 
  • All holiday stay info needs to be finalised by Wednesday 12 June.

Follow the link to the Student Portal https://portal.kings.uq.edu.au/StarRezPortalX
