Starting university is a big adventure and at ACU you’re not alone on your journey. We offer a range of services and programs to support you during your first year.
ACU offers a range of programs to ease you into uni. To get the most out of your university experience, we recommend attending our onboarding programs.
Virtual Welcome gives you an opportunity to connect with fellow offer holders online. You’ll meet current students, staff and alumni, get your questions answered and learn about next steps.
Getting Started Day is designed for students who would like some extra information and support, and the opportunity to connect with peers before Orientation Day. Come along to familiarise yourself with your campus, meet people from your course, learn study skills from student mentors and feel more confident about starting uni.
Orientation Day is an important step in your university journey. Find out about ACU and your chosen course, and meet your lecturers, peers and the ACU community in a fun-filled day of music, food and learning.
