Frequently Asked Questions
How should I prepare for Info Day?
Before you attend Info Day, it's worth doing some prep work to make the most of your visit. Take a look at the Notre Dame website to explore our programs, faculties and facilities. We also recommend writing down any questions ahead of the day and bringing along your list so you can get all the advice you need from our staff, students and alumni.
When you register you will create a personalised schedule for information sessions, workshops and tours based on your areas of interest. You can easily update and add more to your schedule so you don't miss out on anything.
And don’t forget transport and parking. Plan ahead of time the best way to get to the campus and look up parking options if you're driving. Consider public transport or carpooling to reduce stress.
Can parents go to Info Day?
You’re more than welcome to bring along family members and friends to Info Day. When you register, you’ll be asked how many people will accompany you, so please let us know.
Info Day is your opportunity to gather information, get a feel for the campus environment and envision yourself as part of the university community. Having family with you can help ensure you’re asking all the important questions and allows you to talk things over with them while the answers are fresh in your mind.
Why is Info Day important?
Info Day is scheduled on the day of ATAR release. This event is your key to commencing Semester 1 2025 with confidence.
For those who are still exploring program options, you will have the opportunity to attend info sessions, and speak one-to-one with faculty staff, and receive personalised assistance and advice of your pathway to university. For those who have already applied to Notre Dame, or are intending on changing their program preference, our student advisors and admission officers will be available to guide you to the next stage of your Notre Dame journey ahead of Semester 1 commencement.
Ultimately, Info Day empowers you to make an informed decision about your uni future before the end of the year. By gathering information, experiencing the campus and interacting with the uni community, you can decide if Notre Dame is the right fit for your ambitions and aspirations ahead of 2025.
