The Study Australia program includes a 5-day group orientation (for most of our sites), guaranteed, fully furnished, and prearranged housing for your entire stay abroad, a Resident Director and more. Studying at the University of Sydney is a unique experience and can give you the opportunity to discover Australia through various Australian and Pacific Rim studies, including Aboriginal studies, Australian history, Australian government and Australian literature.
