This project identified strategies to support regional students from low SES backgrounds during their transition into university, to address persistently high levels of attrition. A pre-commencement framework and online system were developed enabling students to self-assess their readiness for their chosen higher education program; prepare for study; and increase awareness of the services available to help them meet the requirements of their chosen program.
