What to expect
Your introduction to ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø begins at orientation. Orientation will help you settle into university life. Here, you will be provided with an overview of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø and ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøC, what to expect, and what facilities and services are available to you as a ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø student. There will often be a morning tea or lunch, a campus tour, and Diploma and Foundations students will meet program coordinators and get to know what to expect – and what is expected of you! An email detailing times, locations and events is sent in the weeks leading up to orientation.
Attendance
Attending orientation is a must. If you aren’t yet enrolled, enrolment support will be available during orientation week. Course Introductions are considered mandatory for students, so please make sure you stay on top of dates and times so that you don’t miss out.
Orientation occurs in-person, but if you have received approval from the academic director to attend online due to extenuating circumstances, you can attend online, or a recording of the relevant sessions can be sent to you.
For international students, you are expected to also attend a dedicated section called International Student Essentials where details about your time at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø are explained.
If you require remote access to your classes, you must first request and receive approval from then Academic Director. Contact Student and Academic Services for the form: studentservices.ucc@canberra.edu.au
