Abstract
First year business students on an outer metropolitan campus were surveyed to evaluate their experiences of university. Students enrolled on this campus tended not have received their first preference, were in longer hours of paid employment and exhibited greater disengagement with the institution and peers. The survey data will inform the evoluation of the specific first year program on the campus. The current survey demonstrates that it is dangerous to simply expect national data to apply to all institutional campuses.
