Flinders in schools

School visits

If you can't make it on campus, we'd be happy to come and visit year 10, 11 or 12 students at your school. Our team of Prospective Student Advisors are experts in advising future students about tertiary education, the admission process and University life at Flinders.

Furthermore, we can also arrange for one of our student ambassadors or our a member of our academic staff to accompany us to help give your students a range of different perspectives on student life.

If you have a specific area of interest in mind - call us and we'll do our best to cater to your students.

Please contact Lyn Pearson (School Liaison) on (08) 8201 5448 for more information.

INSPIRE Peer Mentoring

(southern suburb schools only)

The goal of the INSPIRE Peer Mentor Project is to increase retention and participation in education for at risk students in the southern suburbs of Adelaide. The goal is met through mentors (Flinders University students) being matched to projects. By being immersed in the classroom as a co-learner or as peers, the mentors bring their own study skills, knowledge, passion and interest in their subject area to the student mentees (students in schools or community based education programs).

For more information refer to INSPIRE Peer Mentoring Program.
