Your transition to ANU

Coming to university can be a daunting experience. To help make your transition to ANU as smooth as possible, we offer all new students an orientation program which includes:

• pre-arrival webinars
• an online induction
• a meet and greet service at the airport or bus station
• a mentoring program
• on-campus Orientation Week

Your first year

The First-Year Experience program supports students from rural, regional and remote areas to form a community, grow their independence and improve their chance of success at ANU. The program provides an extended transition process through a series of workshops, events and group discussions throughout the year.
