Indigenous orientation

Aboriginal, Australian South Sea Islander and Torres Strait Islander students are invited to attend the Indigenous Orientation Day that commences a week before USC's main orientation program each semester.

It's a great way to meet other students and staff, settle in to university life and learn about the support services available across the University. 

  • Indigenous Orientation - Friday, 13 July 2012
  • All Student Orientation - Monday, 16 July 2012 to Friday, 20 July 2012.
