What is ACU Thrive?

ACU Thrive is a unique approach to your first year at university which prioritises your success every step of the way. It ensures you have the opportunity to thrive in all aspects of your transition into higher education, including how you learn, where you learn and how you make meaningful connections with the ACU community.

Your first year at university should challenge you – but it should also be enjoyable and manageable. With us, you’ll be supported with both independent and collaborative learning, given the opportunity to prepare for classes in advance, and have real support from your teaching staff. It’s a thoughtfully designed approach to university that focuses on helping you grow, not burning you out.
