Orientation
Welcome to Adelaide! We're here to help you prepare before you officially start your studies.
O'Week is an unforgettable introduction to your time at the University of Adelaide.
In the week before each semester, the University hosts Orientation Week (O'Week) to help new students adapt to their studies. During O'Week, you will:
- Be officially welcomed to the University
- Hear important information about your rights and responsibilities as an international student
