It is my honour to have you enrolled with us to begin a new
chapter in your educational journey. You will be pleased to

discovery of oneself and the people whom you will meet
throughout your time here.
To ensure that you are able to gain the most benefit from your time at our
institution, we have lined up a comprehensive orientation programme to help
you settle in and get started with your life as a Taylor’s student. From getting to
know advisors, counselors, lecturers and new course mates, to making new
friends in clubs and societies, to helping you cope with a new environment and
culture, and ultimately, excelling in your studies, we will be your extended
family in guiding you through the next few years of your personal and
professional development in your area of studies.
I look forward to seeing you upon your arrival and induction at Taylor’s University. Be ready to embrace life as a Taylorian!
