About PASS

Peer Assisted Study Sessions or ‘PASS’ is an internationally accredited program aimed at assisting primarily first year coursework students in their transition into ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog.

PASS supports students by providing additional academic assistance. It is a student run study group external to lectures and tutorials, giving students a chance to address any possible questions that they may not have been able to raise during class hours. It is also a great way to build a network of support and friendship with other students in their class, and consolidate knowledge through fun group activities.

PASS sessions are free and facilitated by PASS leaders, who are current ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide students that have previously taken and excelled in their respective course.

PASS is not just for students who feel like they may be struggling. It is also for students who wish to get the most out of their studies. Studies completed by the Australasian Centre for PASS at the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Wollongong have shown that 1 hour of PASS is equal to 4 hours of individual study.
