O’Week takes place the week before Semester begins. 

To get off to a good start, we recommend you attend as many events as possible either online or on campus! The Flinders Orientation Platform enables you to attend and participate in events as well as create your own personalised schedule of events and activities that will help you meet new people, learn about Flinders and your course, and get ready to study.

Flinders offers a number of mentoring programs which will provide you with the support if you need some guidance, peer advice or are just feeling overwhelmed as you start your University journey. You can check out all the programs available on the Mentoring Programs webpage.  

The O'Guide Program runs throughout the first few weeks of the semester, so during O'Week make sure you meet up with your O'Guide for the first time (either on campus or online) to hear about what life at Flinders is like!

Have a look through Your O'Week Checklist and Useful Resources below, to ensure that you have completed all the essentials to help you have the best start to university.

Once you have O'Week sorted out, don't forget to explore and plan the rest of your orientation at Flinders. We have a range of events and activities across the first three weeks of semester to help you learn new skills, meet other students and settle into life at University.
