Studying in Australia

The experience of studying and living overseas is one not to miss – and Australia is the perfect country to begin that journey. Our world-class cities are sophisticated and cosmopolitan. Our climate is warm and sunny practically all year round. We have a multicultural society that eagerly welcomes diversity, including all races and religions. And, best of all, we are a really friendly bunch!  

But, perhaps most importantly, our education system is truly world standard. Our universities are recognised internationally, and our tertiary qualifications are accepted by employers and other institutions all over the world. So, it is no surprise that education is one of our biggest export industries, with international students making up more than 20 per cent of Australian university enrolments.

The Gold Coast: a city of growth and innovation

Exploring the best of Australia 

If you’re looking to combine your studies with travel, the Gold Coast provides the perfect home base. There’s so much to see and explore in our city, but we’re also a short drive from hotspots like Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast and Byron Bay. Hop on a plane to experience it all: from the vast Outback to our World Heritage-listed Great Barrier Reef, surfing beaches to lush rainforests, and Sydney’s bustling metropolis to quaint country towns.  

Life on the Gold Coast

Our campus is based on the vibrant Gold Coast. The fastest growing city in Australia, the Gold Coast is a hub for growth, entrepreneurship, and innovation, with new businesses in exciting industries emerging every day. Studying on the Gold Coast is affordable, dynamic, and full of opportunities to meet other international students – so be sure to get involved however you can!

Know before you go

If studying in Australia appeals to you, it is important that you get a clear picture of what it’s like to live and learn here before you begin the process of applying for university and visas. From finding your community to the basics of healthcare, here are a few things to know before you go…  

We support student health and wellness with a wide range of offerings, including free access to our Sports Centre, counselling for all students, and wellbeing initiatives throughout the semester.  

It’s also crucial your medical needs are looked after, and that you are covered in case of emergency, as international students cannot access our free public healthcare system, Medicare. You must have Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) before commencing study in Australia.
