Abstract	Acceptable and expected living standards have been continually increasing in Australia and this has been particularly marked during the last two generations. This development is incurring a greater financial input from any student living independently. Often mature age students have families and financial obligations. Students' time is taken up with family, work, financial concerns, social obligations, travel and religion in addition to their study. Universities are competing for students' time in a period when their commitments are escalating and life is far busier than it was even one generation ago. With ever increasing demands on students' time, tertiary education institutes need to find effective ways of supporting their students, both on campus and online. Acknowledgment of the constant and continual change in students' lifestyles and seeking and implementing effective methods of connecting with and supporting students can improve the student experience.
