Week 2
Complete
Hey Aisha,
This is where the real work starts.
3 in 4 first-years say week 2 is when it stops feeling like orientation and starts feeling like uni. That dip is normal, and census is still two weeks away, so there's nothing to decide yet.
What matters this week
Census date is in 9 days
It's the last day you can drop a subject without paying for it or having it show up on your record. If one of your subjects already feels like the wrong call, this is the window to change it cleanly.
Get your due dates in one place
Now that assessments are appearing, pull every due date into one spot. Your phone calendar is fine. It's the one small habit that separates a calm semester from a panicked one.

Ask anything

Good timing to ask. Your first BUS101 assignment got briefed this week and it's due the Monday after next, so starting now means you're not writing it the night before.
Three things make it easier: message Sara Kim (your BUS101 tutor runs a Thursday drop-in and would rather see your draft early), skim the assignment rubric before you start so you're writing to what's marked, and book 15 min with Student Central if you'd like a second set of eyes on your plan.
You're not meant to figure this out alone.
Whatever's heavy this week, there's a person here who's heard it before. Pick what's closest and we'll route you somewhere useful.
I'm falling behind in a subject
If a subject's slipping, your tutor would rather hear it early than at the next assignment.
