Orientation

2 weeks until Orientation!

Start your uni experience

Orientation is a special part of your university experience. It gives you the opportunity to explore your campus, learn all about your program, and meet students who will be studying alongside you, so you can feel confident when classes start the following week.

You can expect a range of on campus and online sessions that will take you through:

  • your program information and introduction to your teachers,
  • an overview of UniSC's IT systems, what they are used for and how you can connect to them,
  • the skills you need to get the best results from your classes,
  • various activities so you can make new uni friends,
  • the different Student clubs and volunteering opportunities that you can get involved in, and
  • the different teams that are here to help you when you need it, like Learning Advisers who can help with tough assignments or Career Advisers who can help you on your career journey even in your first year.
