Augustine University’s Convocation Hall was the epicenter of excitement and enlightenment as freshmen (100level, Direct Entry & Transfer students) engaged in a three-day orientation programme from Monday, 6th to Wednesday, 8th November, 2023. 

Facilitators from diverse backgrounds addressed crucial aspects of university life, leaving the incoming students well-prepared for the academic challenges ahead.
The program kicked off with esteemed facilitators sharing insights into academic success, covering topics ranging from effective study habits to time management strategies, understanding the place of ICT, conduct in the lecture rooms, management of university property, award system of the University, merit/demerit system, exeat processing, hostel life, use of library, interaction with Faculty Officers and Student Representative Council.

Beyond academics, a holistic approach was emphasized with highlights on the importance of spirituality in maintaining a balanced life throughout the demanding university journey.

Navigating the social dynamics of campus life was a key focus, with discussions ranging from dress codes to appropriate conduct in lecture rooms. The goal was to foster a respectful and inclusive environment for all students.
The orientation also introduced freshmen to the vibrant world of sports, clubs, and associations available on campus, encouraging active participation for a well-rounded university experience.

As the orientation programme concluded, the Convocation Hall echoed with the excitement and determination of the freshmen, now armed with the knowledge, skills, and a strong sense of community needed to thrive in their academic journey. 
At a Thanksgiving Holy Mass on Wednesday, 8th November, 2023 which marked the programme’s conclusion, freshmen, returning students, and staff members gathered to express appreciation to God and ask for blessings for the new academic journey.
