Get Ready to Study

If you’ve already applied for your course, we’d love to welcome you to one of our Get Ready to Study drop-ins. These events are a great opportunity to meet our support teams, explore your local campus or centre, and help you feel confident and prepared ahead of induction.

Drop in and chat with our team, we can help you:

  • Accept your offer
  • Apply for funding and understand your options
  • Explore accommodation if you're moving away from home
  • Get familiar with the technology you'll use for learning
  • Find out about the academic support available throughout your studies
  • Learn about our student wellbeing and mental health services
  • Take a tour of the campus and facilities

Our Get Ready to Study drop-ins are a great opportunity to visit campus and ask questions in person. However, if you’re travelling from further away, online options are also available and may be a more convenient choice.
