As you may already realize, Australian terms differ from those in the U.S. due to seasonal differences. You may participate in one or two trimesters, one running from March-June, another running from July-October, or three-week January session. Deakin University provides a unique three-day orientation each trimester that is designed to help make the transition into Australian university life as easy as possible.
