Meet with the BOAT crew for tips and tricks to be on track

The Be On Academic Track (BOAT) program is available to all students, in particular those who are concerned about, or at risk of, failing to maintain good academic results.

Experienced student mentors (the BOAT crew) provide personalised support during trimester weeks to help students get on track with their studies. Students who are on Blue or Amber academic standing status are contacted via student email, and will receive a call from a Mentor during the trimester.

All students are eligible to access the range of free services offered through the BOAT mentoring program.
