WELCOME TO
CAITLIN AGRA
RUSU Bundoora
Coordinator
Hello and welcome to Bundoora RMIT 2019! Here at
RUSU, we know that the first year of university can be a little
daunting, so we wanted to put together an orientation guide
book for you to help in navigating these first few weeks as a new
student.
The Bundoora campus has many wonderful services to offer.
The weekly Chill n Grills are a great place to chill and relax, make
new friends, and find out about volunteering or getting involved.
We also have a range of clubs and societies who are always on the
look-out for new members. Over the next few weeks there will be
lots of opportunities to participate in RUSU games and activities,
so be on the look-out for posters and flyers across campus
advertising upcoming events!
Feel free to come and speak to any of your friendly RUSU reps any
time of the week. We are always happy to have a chat or answer
any questions you might have.
We are so pleased to welcome you to RMIT for 2019, and hope you
have a fantastic year!
Sincerely,
RUSU Bundoora Team
