#ACUOpenDay

Choosing your course is serious business, Open Day isn't

Grab a bite

The best way to walk around campus is with a coffee in-hand. So there's a range of delicious food and drink options on the day. 

Score a freebie

Snacks, games and more – keep an eye out for activities and giveaways.

Take in a show

With student performances and live music, there’s plenty to keep you entertained.

Win a trip to Rome

University is about more than finding a career. It’s about finding yourself. One of the best ways to do that is by travelling – and we think Italy is a good place to start.

So get your passport ready, because if you register to attend our Open Day you could win $5,000 towards a study trip to our Rome Campus. T&Cs apply.

Win a trip to Rome

It’s our Open Day, but it’s not about us. It’s about you.


Our personal approach allows you to customise your experience – what you want to see, questions you want answered, people you want to talk to. You won’t get lost in the crowd at our Open Days – you’ll get real one-on-one time with academics, students and staff.  


Deciding what and where to study is a pretty momentous decision. That’s why we run Open Day – it’s everything you need, in one place, to help make your choice.

Our biggest piece of advice – don’t be afraid to ask questions. We’ll have academics, course experts, support staff and admissions experts on-hand ready to help. You can ask about courses, applying, admission pathways, scholarships, studying overseas, accommodation, financial support… really anything you’ve ever wanted to know about uni. It’s also a good opportunity to do a campus tour, and meet real students and lecturers.  

Yes, you can. Bring your friends and family along – everyone is welcome to all sessions and activities.

Yes, it’s never too early to start thinking about your future. Come along to chat about your goals and plan for your final years of school.

Yes. Whether you’ve take a year off or you finished school years ago – Open Day is perfect for anyone considering study.

Yes. Open Day is the perfect opportunity to tour the campus and talk with academics. Whether you want to study on campus or online, our postgraduate experts will be available to give you advice, answer your questions, and discuss your study and career goals.

No, we’ve got you covered. You’ll receive a bag on arrival which will have all the basics you need to get started.

Nope. Registering is not essential, although there are benefits for doing so. For example, you’ll go into the draw to win a study trip to Rome, and get access to exclusive Open Day updates. There’s also no need to register for any of the events on the day, but spaces may be limited, so we suggest you arrive on time.

ACU staff and students are all wearing ACU uniforms.

Yes! We will have free WiFi access for all our Open Day guests.

Our AskACU team has you covered. You can search FAQs, text, email, live chat or call – whatever works for you.

You can also book a personal campus tour to visit us on campus and discuss your options face-to-face.

If you can’t make a certain session or activity, check to see if it’s running again later in the day. If not, don’t stress – you can still chat one-on-one with our experts in the Info Expo.

That’s easy – head to your nearest ‘Start here’ tent where you can collect a free bag with essential information and get directions.

That’s up to you. You can come along whenever you like between the Open Day start and finish times, but it’s a good idea to plan your day in advance. There are a lot of different sessions, and some of them are a one-off. Planning ahead is the best way to make sure you don’t miss your top picks.

Absolutely, Open Day will have a range of food and drink options.

Absolutely, and they are all happy to chat to you. Hear firsthand from a student about their experiences, learn what it’s like to study at ACU, hear about their course, ask if they have any tips, and more.
