Prospective students will next month have the opportunity to visit Federation University Australia’s campuses and meet with experienced advisors ahead of making a final decision about their post-secondary education.

The University's annual Info Day will feature campus tours and presentation sessions, where visitors can gain valuable knowledge from academics, current students, admissions support teams as well as industry guests.

For those who did not get the Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) they were hoping for, Info Day is an opportunity to learn about the wide range of options to get into their dream course.

Info Day is also a chance for non-school-leavers to enquire about study in 2024, and learn about flexible study options, scholarships and pathways from TAFE to university.

Federation is rated by the Good Universities Guide as the number one university in Australia for first generation student enrolment and number one in Victoria for undergraduate starting salary and social equity.

As part of the rollout of Australia's first co-operative education model, the University is getting students work and world ready through direct connection to employers and co-op experiential learning, with co-op degrees across science, engineering, business and Information Technology offered in 2024.

Info Day will be held on Tuesday, 12 December from 1pm-5pm at the Mt Helen, Berwick, Gippsland and Camp Street campuses. To register, visit https://federation.edu.au/infoday

“We aim to make a real difference to the lives of every student who walks through our doors. Whether they are the first in their family to attend university or returning to study after being in the workforce, our students can succeed wherever they start on their study journey, through a suite of courses designed, developed and delivered in partnership with industry as part of our co-operative education model.”

“Info Day is a wonderful opportunity to help prospective students choose the course or pathway that is right for them and gain valuable knowledge about the flexibility, support and scholarships available to them at Federation.”
