The Uni-Direct Office provides international students with pastoral care and support as well as a focus point within the College.

The College has a Program and a Student Service Manager who provide information, advice and assistance in dealing with day-to-day matters, academic problems, learning assistance and personal issues.

The College realises that it can be difficult arriving in a new country. The orientation program provides a good opportunity for you to meet fellow students and staff.

During your first week at the College, you will participate in a three day orientation program.  During this program, we provide you with a lot of information about living and studying in Perth.  We will also help you to finalise your enrolment and deal with essential matters such as bank accounts and medical insurance.  If you need help finding permanent accommodation, this is an ideal time to tell us.

If you miss the orientation and need help or are looking for information on any of the items, please contact us
