Explanation
The Unique Student Identifier (USI) is a reference number made up of a combination of ten numbers and letters. Your USI is used to connect your student loan information to your personal details. You are required to provide a USI via the Pre-Enrolment Questionnaire to study at Griffith.
Your legal first name, last name and date of birth need to match exactly between Griffith University and the USI Registry. If they do not match, then your USI cannot be verified. You need a verified USI to:
- be eligible for a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP)
- be eligible for Commonwealth financial assistance (HECS-HELP, FEE-HELP, OS-HELP and SA-HELP)
- graduate and receive your award.
You can find more information on the Unique Student Identifier webpage.

You will only be able to create a USI after arriving in Australia. Further information is available on the Australian Government's USI website.
