Study in JCU Flex mode, which means you’re free to decide, week to week, how you learn in each subject. So, regardless of whether you’re enrolled as an internal (on-campus) or external (online) student, you have the flexibility to engage face-to-face on campus, or online, or you can study independently. And you can choose a mix of the three that suits you. Learn more about JCU Flex.
