    What to Bring 

    Here’s what you’ll want to have with you on the day: your UTS student number, which will come in handy for check-ins; a notebook or device to take notes during sessions; and a fully charged phone so you can access maps, schedules, and QR codes. Comfortable shoes are a must, as you’ll be walking around campus quite a bit. Don’t forget a water bottle to stay hydrated, and most importantly, bring your questions—whether they’re about your course, uni life, or anything else you’re curious about.
