The transition to university is a time of change to students entering a completely new environment. Initially new students may experience a mixture of anxiety, apprehension, pride and excitement; all understandable responses to facing a new situation. In addition students may also have some added challenges.
Griffith students are often:
- the first person in their family to attend university
- working significant hours in paid work as well as studying
- devoting time to family and carer responsibilities as well as studying and working
You can be an important factor in encouraging your student through this transition and supporting them with managing their competing demands.
These seminars provide information about:
- what to expect as your student moves into tertiary education
- how to support your student’s aspirations, well-being and development
- strategies for succeeding at university
There will be opportunities to ask Griffith University students and staff questions, in addition to a brief campus tour.campus tour.
New students are welcome to attend with their family and friends.
