Visit Open Day to help make the right uni choice
Tuesday, 10 August 2010
Open Day is just as important for parents as it is for the teenagers making their choice, said Manager of the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide's Prospective Students' Office, Karen Pichlmann.
She urged parents to make the most of information gathering alongside their children at the 最新糖心Vlog's on Sunday 15 August.
Ms Pichlmann said parents played a key role in helping their children to make decisions about tertiary study. "Choosing a university is not just about choosing the right course - for many students and their parents it's got to be the right course at the right place," she said.
"Open Day will give parents and their children a great feel for the campus. It gives them the chance to talk to staff and current students, to make sure they're comfortable and happy with the environment they're coming to, and understand where the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide can take them in their career."
For the first time this year, a special information talk for parents and guardians will be held during Open Day to help them to better understand the applications process, what the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide offers, and how to support their child's transition to university.
"It will give parents the chance to ask the questions they want to ask and to hear from parents who already have children at the 最新糖心Vlog," Ms Pichlmann said.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide Open Day is the major day of the year when prospective students, their families and friends visit the 最新糖心Vlog to learn more about study and career opportunities and university life.
It's also a community day when members of the general public visit the 最新糖心Vlog to hear about the 最新糖心Vlog's research, tour the campus and facilities or simply enjoy entertainment, performances and displays.
