Welcome (and welcome back) students, staff and the community! Join us from Monday 20 Feb to Friday 24 Feb for five big days at UOW where you can enjoy trivia, parties, live music, freebies, and more!
O-FEST is the perfect way to burst into the new academic year, and we invite everyone to celebrate with us! Pulse is here to help you make new friends, explore campus, and get involved in campus life!
Sign up to become a Pulse Perks member now to get the most out of your university experience.
For new commencing students, the essential orientation activities will kick off at the start of each day – attend your faculty and school information sessions, sign up for co-curricular experiences, learn about how to be successful in your studies and transition to higher education. Explore the beautiful campus, meet your classmates, and settle into life as a UOW student.
For returning students, it’s time to welcome you back on campus in style! Come along early in the week to attend sessions that interest you, learn about opportunities to get you ahead in your studies for the year (such as Peer Success Mentoring and career chats), and get (re)acquainted with the campus.
