Plan your Orientation
On-campus Orientation sessions are all about:
- exploring your campus and study spaces
- connecting with your faculty and meeting your lecturers
- finding information about key support services
- being social and getting involved in student life.
No matter where or how you study, there is something for everyone to join in on all the fun.
