Assignment of buddies and placement into groups takes place on the first attendance day of the official orientation week at your campus.
Your buddy will be your guide during the first few weeks and will provide you and your group with information and practical advice about the city, the university, and everyday student life. They will also help answer questions and assist with practical matters.
The Buddy Programme at each campus includes a variety of events and activities, ensuring that everyone can find something they would like to participate in.
We strongly encourage you to take part in the Buddy Programme from day one. It provides a unique opportunity to build a network and make friends who can support you throughout your studies and beyond graduation.
