OPEN DAY - Let's talk about it

Open Day gives you the chance to hear from people "in the know".

Leaders from our many Faculties and Schools will give free talks throughout the day, revealing new and inspiring areas of research and highlighting the exciting academic opportunities that await you. General Talks provide useful information for any new and prospective students, and their families.

Faculty Talks specifically address the opportunities for study in individual areas and where they can lead you.

Overseas study as part of your degree

The University of Adelaide has more than 80 exchange agreements with partner universities around the world. These agreements allow students to study part of their degree at one of our partner universities for one or two semesters.

This session will detail the processes involved for students wanting to study overseas through one of the University's exchange agreements. There will also be involvement from students who have recently returned from their overseas study.

UNDERGRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

This session will provide information on the types of University scholarships offered to undergraduates, with a focus on those commencing higher education for the first time.

It will cover scholarships available for high achievers as well as scholarship opportunities for students from rural and regional areas, for students in financial need and for Indigenous students. Advice will be given on how to find information on specific scholarships, including closing dates and application processes.
