Participate in Orientation

Get the best start possible at university, both academically and socially. Universities are big places, and there will be a large amount of new information to take in. It's best to have a look around Flinders before you begin your studies.

Start Smart, Flinders' comprehensive orientation and transition program, will help you to settle in, find your way around campus, and enjoy the academic and social sides of university life. Give yourself a head start to university life and study by attending as many orientation sessions as possible. More information can be found in the Start Smart Guide or at the Orientation website.

Visit Get Connected

Make your transition to university as easy as possible. The Start Smart Guide and the Get Connected website will help you become familiar with the University, academic requirements, and know where to go for help, if needed.

Planning ahead, becoming involved in programs, and establishing a support network very early on will improve your first year experience. For more information on the wide range of resources available to you, see the Get Connected website.
