International Student Welcome Day

International Student Welcome Day

Office of Student Life

As an international student, International Student Welcome Day is your official welcome to the University of Sydney Community. You will experience a traditional Aboriginal dance performance and Welcome to Country before a  special welcome from our University Executive.  An information session will help you transition to University life with important information on support services and tips to help look after your health and wellbeing in your new home, Australia.

Refreshments will then be provided, and you’ll then have the opportunity to network and meet your new peers while you explore information booths and get your questions answered.

The day will end on a high with Sydney Uni Sport & Fitness (SUSF) where they’ll host all students to a FREE BBQ late lunch and provide the ultimate taste of what they have to offer, from their gym to their sport clubs.
