Abstract

A survey of commencing students at Adelaide University during their first day in the new role of university student in February 2000 provided rich material on which to develop orientation day programs that are targeted and effective. A valuable insight into the concerns of commencing students at the university was gained and future orientation day programs can be better designed to address issues and concerns identified through this study. Evaluation of the effectiveness of future orientation programs is also possible now that categories of new student concerns have been established.
