Study at an international centre

  • Study an international program close to home
  • Learn, collaborate and network with other students in the centre
  • Improve your skills before moving abroad

Selected international licensed providers offer and teach Foundation Studies and the Foundation English Entry Program.  You will be learning the same UNSW approved curriculum as students on campus in Sydney, taught by highly qualified local and international teachers who are experts in their fields. This is a great way to start your journey to a world-renowned university without making the big move abroad.  

See if there’s an international centre near you.

Learning at a centre gives you a chance to meet and learn with students just like you, and you’ll have the support of teachers to help you reach your goals.

Starting your international university journey close to your home allows you to focus on your studies, without the extra pressure of relocating to a new country. And, by the end of the program, you will be more ready for your move to Sydney!

See what it’s like to learn Australian curriculum so you’re ready to succeed when you progress to university.
