First-Year Success Orientation
You will miss out on meeting other students doing the same course as you, in an informal setting. Networking with others should not be under-estimated in order to achieve success. You will miss out on meeting faculty staff. You will miss out on finding out about how to construct your curriculum (where electives are an option). You will miss out on having the opportunity of listening to the experiences of senior students who have dealt with challenges in your course. You will probably get lost and not know where to find your lecture venues or important resources, which could put you off to a bad start. You might remain completely unaware of all the resources available to help you at Nelson Mandela University. You will miss out on a great deal of fun!
