You'll need this to access your university email account and university sites and services. Think of it as your magic key to the digital world of the university!
Once set up, check for important emails about registration, welcome events, and course unit selection. Don't miss out on any exciting updates!
When invited to do so, complete the registration process and pick up your student card. Your official ticket to all things university!
Use one of the computers, speak to a member of our Hub team, or take a well-earned break with a brew from the Lime Café. It's your go-to place for all things support!
Find key information about being a student in the School of Arts, Languages and Cultures (SALC), such as your School Handbook and much more (you’ll need a university IT account for this). It's packed with resources to help you succeed!
Attend all compulsory welcome events to get to know your teachers and course mates.
It's the perfect way to start making friends! You can view your timetable at the top of the page.
You can also check out what else is on in September across campus beyond SALC.
Complete course unit selection when emailed to do so. You’ll need to do this before teaching starts. If you need any help, head over to the Student Support Hub.
Pick one up from our Student Ambassadors at the entrances to the Samuel Alexander Building (they’re the ones wearing the ‘Ask Me’ tops!).
Show off your university pride!
