Help from IDP for Study In Australia

• As Australia’s leading international education and development organisation, IDP is recognised globally as a first-choice partner in education and development. In those countries where IDP has offices, one in every five students who choose to come to Australia utilises the services of IDP. Wherever in the world Australia is the first choice destination for an international educational experience, IDP is the first choice for students who are seeking advice and assistance.  
• IDP’s counsellors guide students, as well as their family and friends, through the entire process of studying in Australia. IDP helps with everything from selecting a course and institution to ensuring students arrive safely in Australia at their chosen destination. Many of IDP’s counsellors have studied in Australia, or visited institutions, and can give practical advice about studies and life ‘down under’.
  
   IDP offices have internet access and CD-ROM resources, course directories, free publications about student life in Australia and study options. Offices also provide handbooks and brochures from Australian institutions and audio-visual resources to show students what Australia is really like.  
  
  IDP’s trained counsellors can:

• Provide comprehensive information on the Australian education system 
  
  Give personalised counselling on study options 
  
  Communicate with Australian institutions on the student’s behalf 
  
  Process applications for a course 
  
  Process visa applications 
  
  Help organise Overseas Student Health Cover 
  
  Process tuition fees 
  
  Offer general advice on Australia and the lifestyle 
  
  Help find accommodation 
  
  
• Every year IDP coordinates or participates in many international education exhibitions and events across dozens of countries around the world. Last year more than 400,000 students from around the world visited one or more of these promotional events.  
  
  IDP also has an office in Sydney, Australia, to help international students throughout their time in Australia.  
  
  As well providing face-to-face counselling for students through IDP’s offices in many countries around the world, IDP also has a virtual support and advice service through the website at www.idp.com.
