What to Expect Over Two Days

Throughout the two days, you’ll be guided by our Orientation Programme Student Leaders — seniors who were once in your position and know how it feels to start something new. They’ll help you settle in, answer your questions, and make your first days smoother.

Whether you’re outgoing or reserved, coming with friends or on your own, you’ll find your space here.
