• Strategies to stay safe and well during this time
• Ideas to extend and enhance your student experience

In addition to these topics, if you are a commencing first year undergraduate or graduate coursework student, you are encouraged to book a Student Connect appointment to help you:

• Navigate University terminology, acronyms and language
• Get to know your student services and what’s available to you
• Learn about the virtual campus
• Understand who can help you in your studies and how to contact them
• Discuss your experience of university so far
• Think about what you want to achieve while you are at university.

All Student Connect advisers are experienced in a broad range of student issues and all are trained in Mental Health First Aid.

If you have never been to campus because of the current travel restrictions and physical distancing rules, please don’t hesitate to book a Student Connect appointment to start feeling more connected.
