  It only takes 5-10 minutes, and you can win 1 of 5 $100 Visa gift cards.

  Access the SSAF Survey from the email “ How would you spend $3.5-4 million?....” sent to your SCU email 3/07/25.

• Respect @ SCU Module (Wednesday, 25 June 2025)
  

  

  Ready to kickstart your success at Uni?

  🎓 New to SCU? Let’s Set You Up for Success! 🌟

  At Southern Cross University, we’re here to support you—not just in your studies, but as a valued member of our inclusive and respectful community. 💛🌏

   

  ✅ To get started, all new students must complete both:

  1. Academic Integrity Module (AIM)
  2. Respect At SCU Module

  🚨 Important: If you don’t complete both by the end of your first study period, you won’t be able to continue your course. This includes:

  • Withheld grades
  • Withdrawal from future units
  • Blocked enrolment

   

  🎯 Exemptions: HDR and SCU College Language Program students only need to complete the Respect at SCU Module.

  💡 Pro Tip: Complete both modules early to avoid interruptions and start your classes smoothly!

  📍 Access them in MySCU (Blackboard) under First Year Induction (FYI) Module: Step 3 once you're enrolled.

   

  Let’s make your SCU journey a great one—start strong, stay on track and be a respectful part of our community! 💛📘
