Welcome Pathways
As you get ready to join the Lakers community, we’ve created a series of online welcome pathways to help you feel confident and supported every step of the way. These short, easy-to-follow modules walk you through the essentials—like how to register for courses, find your way around your student accounts, understand fee payments, and learn about the many supports and services available to you.
Think of them as your starting point for a smooth transition into university life. You can explore the modules at your own pace, whenever it works best for you. Please choose the pathway that best aligns with the beginning of your Laker journey.
