Ready4Uni

An online orientation for new students

Ready4Uni has been designed to assist you as a new student at La Trobe University. We recognise that every students' transition will be different, and that is why this website is structured in a way that allows you to pull out sections or topics at your own leisure, prior to Orientation Week, or as a reference throughout your first semester with us.

Check out the Ready4Uni video and the sections below to find out exactly what's on Ready4Uni and also what other programs and resources are available to support your transition to uni.
