For Brisbane, use 433 Boundary Street, Spring Hill QLD 4000 and the Translink journey planner. Check current routes, timetables and service disruptions before travelling.
Start by attending orientation and introducing yourself to classmates. Ask Student Services about upcoming activities, workshops and opportunities to connect with students at your Melbourne or Brisbane campus.
Speak with your course coordinator or Student Services about your study goals and career interests. They can direct you to relevant course progression information and available career support. Admission to further study and employment outcomes depend on the requirements of the institution or employer.
Keep your residential address, telephone number, email and emergency contact information current with OIHE. International students must notify OIHE within seven days of changes to their residential address, telephone number or email. Contact Student Services if you need help updating your records.
You must hold a visa that permits your intended study in Australia. The visa you need depends on your circumstances and course. Check the Department of Home Affairs website for current Student visa requirements and check the conditions attached to your own visa.
Attend your campus safety briefing and familiarise yourself with emergency exits, reporting procedures and local surroundings. Plan your travel, keep your belongings secure and contact Student Services if you have a safety concern or need help finding local support.
Melbourne generally has cooler winters and changeable weather, so layers are useful. Brisbane generally has warmer weather, with hot, humid summers and milder winters. Check local forecasts when planning travel and outdoor activities, and prepare for heat, rain and sun exposure.
Your costs will depend on where you live, your accommodation and your lifestyle. Budget for rent, utilities, food, transport, communications, study materials and personal expenses, in addition to tuition fees. Use Study Australia's living and education costs information to help prepare your budget. Compare accommodation and travel costs for your chosen campus.
Contact Student Services before you arrive if you need guidance on finding accommodation in Melbourne or Brisbane. Ask about available information on rental accommodation, shared housing and homestay options. Check the location, total costs and agreement carefully before committing to accommodation.
Orientation will help you understand your course, meet staff and other students, and become familiar with your campus. It introduces student systems, academic expectations, support services, policies and campus safety. Check your orientation invitation for the date, time, location and documents to bring. Attend the session for your enrolled campus.
Contact Student Services if personal, emotional, health, financial or other difficulties are affecting your studies. The team can discuss available support and, where appropriate, refer you to external professional services. Seek assistance early so you can explore your options.
