Are you an artist who wants to use your creative skills to improve community care or branch off into a leadership role? A Bachelor of Creative Arts and Community Wellbeing provides you with the opportunity to pursue your passions not only in creative industries but other sectors critical to the welfare and development of happy and productive communities.

When you study a Bachelor of Creative Arts and Community Wellbeing at UniSQ you will learn how your creative practice can engage positively with communities to build resilience, capacity and cohesion. This Visual and Performing Arts degree is underpinned by introductory Human Services courses to equip you with the necessary knowledge to make long lasting positive impacts to individuals and groups within your community. 

The entry requirements to study a creative arts degree will vary depending on the education provider you choose.

To study a Bachelor of Creative Arts and Community Wellbeing at UniSQ you need to meet a minimum ATAR and assumed knowledge. ‘Assumed knowledge’ is the term we use to explain the minimum level of knowledge we presume you have in some subjects before you start your degree.

You will also be required to attend an audition/interview either on-campus or virtually and provide additional supporting information.

If you don’t have an ATAR you can still be accepted into the Bachelor of Creative Arts and Community Wellbeing by undertaking an audition/interview and supply a written statement.

For further information on ATAR and assumed knowledge and supporting information, please view the entry requirements section of your chosen major.
