Orientation at Federation University
Feeling nervous? That’s normal. But we know how you can make your transition to uni easier: get amongst it at Orientation. Tour your campus. Meet other first years. Learn about your course. And – most importantly – fill up on free food. It all kicks off on Monday 24 February.
Our campuses
Mt Helen is set on 110 hectares of bushland but it’s only 10 kms from the centre of Ballarat. So you can listen to birdsong as you study then paint the town red in your downtime.
Camp St is basically a creative student’s dream. Fine art studios – tick, professional galleries – tick, multiple performance spaces – tick (hello 150-seat theatre). And there's great coffee round the corner.
Berwick is all landscaped grounds and modern architecture, but it’s only 40km from the Melbourne CBD. You can study in tranquility then pop into the city for some karaoke.
Gippsland is set on 60 lush hectares (yes, there’s a lake), and Churchill is right next door. If you're a Bass or Wonthaggi student, you're invited to the Gippsland Orientation.
Our Melbourne City Campus is right in the middle of the CBD. Step outside and you're literally surrounded by shops, cafes, galleries, theatres – and free trams.
You might be studying at home, but you're still welcome to join Orientation at your closest campus, explore the Orientation Hub and connect with classmates via Moodle.
Can't wait? Explore our online Orientation Hub from 3 Feb.
