University Senior College (USC) is an academic, co-educational, independent school offering senior secondary education for students in Years 11 and 12. In partnership with The University of Adelaide, the USC Partner’s Pathway provides an opportunity to secure a guaranteed place at The University of Adelaide.
USC provides a unique and exciting educational experience that fosters a smooth transition from senior secondary to university, working with other like-minded, motivated and enthusiastic students and teachers. Students discover how to maximize their success at school and university as they become more self-reliant, resilient and confident learners. Highly professional and caring subject specialist teachers will mentor and support student growth in a vibrant, stimulating learning environment embedded within The University of Adelaide campus.
USC students have access to a number of Adelaide University campus facilities including the Barr Smith Library, lecture theatres, tutorial rooms, The Little Theatre, Hub Central (the Learning Hub), University Sports Association and dedicated laboratories in the Jordan Building. The North Terrace Campus is adjacent to numerous other research-orientated organisations, including the SA Museum, Adelaide Zoo, Botanic Gardens, Art Gallery, Migration Museum and Adelaide Magistrates Court, encouraging collaborative learning.
