I'm a student/staff member at Strathfield entering my 5th year and I'm still figuring out which room is where! Trust me when I say many of the room numbers do not make sense.

Definitely come to orientation and go on a campus tour. Print off your timetable beforehand and you can check off the rooms you will be in :)

To give you a general idea, on Strathfield campus only, C in front of a room number means Clancy building which is the newer building just down from main buildings. CL, however, means computer lab. TS stands for teaching space.

Don't stress, just ask someone :) everyone is really friendly and willing to help :)

I'll prob be on the Second Hand bookstore Mon-Tues, raising funds for our fellow students in East Timor, come along and say hi, maybe buy a few books :)

Cool, thanks for this.
This will really help. :)

But wait a second, shouldn't we wait until our first lecture, cause that's when they tell us if we need the textbook?
This is only a price estimate
You can wait until the lectures just incase. But the lines at CO-op book store are very long in the first two weeks.

What campus r u goin 2?

I'm on Strathfield campus. We'll be under the archways near the quad. Books are assorted clear outs from people's bookcases, not textbooks as such. We raise money for students at the teacher's college in east timor throughout the year :)

If you go here: Orientation 2009 - ACU National (Australian Catholic University) and then click on your campus then on your course, you will find out what is happening when on each day. The week starts off with mainly information sessions with the end of the week being more workshop based.

I'm helping to give the community engagement session on Tuesday afternoon :)

I'm fairly unhappy with my timetable actually. My lectures and tutorials are inconsistent and I've only got Mondays off with significant gaps between classes.

Oh I see.
Yep, that's what it does.......so we get to pay at concession prices for both the trains and buses. :)
So I don't think we need to apply for a travel pass. Because of that.

No, I actually picked the times which would be most conflicting with my schedule /sarcasm

It seems I did not receive my preferences, however, I did leave it later than I should have. It's not an issue, I am sure I can find a way to entertain myself between classes :)

travel pass is different to what it was at school, this one is just a weekly, train and bus ticket, that covers you anywhere in area, as many times as you want in that week, heaps cheaper then individual tickets

Hey guys, this isn't timetable related but I have noticed this thread is a bit active so I thought I'd post my question here:

Where/how do you check your ACU email? And how do you find out your password?

when you go on the home page of acu - Home - ACU National (The Australian Catholic University) on the right side of the page it says "login" then scroll down to email and it will take you to another page which says: All Students How to Access Email.
your password is your birthdate dd/mm/yyyy. eg: 02/11/1990.
hope that helps :)
