University of New England Profile

My name is Sarah and I'm the Team Leader of the Future Students Team here at UNE. I am a proud UNE alumna, having graduated with a Bachelor of Laws/Bachelor of Criminology in 2021. I originally had my sights set on a legal career but completely fell in love with the beautiful Armidale campus and UNE community. I now live in Armidale and am pursuing a career in higher education. I have previously worked in Admissions and Advanced Standing (credit transfer), so enjoy applying my diverse institutional knowledge to making the prospective journey as smooth, supported and enjoyable as possible.

The University of New England is a regional research university based in Armidale, NSW, with additional centres in Sydney (Parramatta), Tamworth and Taree. UNE began offering distance education in 1955, longer than any other Australian university, and today around 83% of its roughly 22,000 students study online. Its academic strengths include agriculture and rural science, education, environmental and animal sciences, livestock genetics, linguistics and archaeology. UNE has built a strong reputation as a leader in flexible online study and is increasingly active in the use of AI in higher education.
