Student Reviews

Thank you for helping me so much on my journey to an Australian med school…. If any of your future cohorts have any questions about JCU, feel free to ask me or have them reach out to me. I’d love to help out our future students at JCU and give back to the OzTREKK community because without you and the entire OzTREKK team I would never have been here.

I just wanted to take some time today and really say thank you to everyone at OzTREKK…. I still remember when I first spoke to an OzTREKK representative in 2018 at a booth at Western. I don’t remember who I spoke with but she was extremely understanding and patient when I asked multiple questions. I’m so grateful that everyone I’ve engaged with from the OzTREKK team since then has met me with the same attitude, even if it was my fifth time calling that week. From the constant and helpful email communication to always being there to listen to me rant over the phone, OzTREKK and everyone there really made a big difference in my life. I really appreciate everything you guys have done for me.

I’ve wanted to study in Australia for years, but I presumed that this is not something many North Americans would do, so I worried that the application process would be challenging. To my pleasant surprise, OzTREKK made this the easiest application process I’ve ever experienced. I actually feel like it’s been more of a holistic academic support experience than merely an application.

Thank you for all of the incredible support and guidance you have provided throughout the application process and continue to provide as the other students and I prepare to embark on a new journey into medicine. [The medicine team] and everyone else at OzTREKK have helped me manifest my dream of studying at UQ, and I cannot sufficiently express how grateful I am to all of you for answering my litany of questions, hosting meaningful webinars, and connecting me with a wonderful cohort of students. Thank you for all that you’ve done and continue to do!

Thank you so much for playing such an instrumental role in my education and life in Australia the past four years. You guys have the most supportive team that I’ve ever met, and you care so much about not just doing your job but also going above and beyond to make everyone feel right at home despite being all the way across the world. It’s this exceptional level of customer service that it makes it a no-brainer to recommend you to everyone I know.

As an aside, I’m very impressed you were able to compile all of the required course outlines on my behalf. Truth be told I was dreading having to dig back into old binders and professor websites to track all of those down. I already greatly appreciate having you in my corner on this.

The application to Australian University was great and easy to follow. Also there was a great meet up arrangement for all the new OzTrekk students when we first arrived which was a good way to make new friends. Overall I had great experience with OzTrekk. OzTrekk has been supportive during preparations as there were lots of helpful information given.

I really appreciated how helpful and knowledgeable the staff were. Made applying so much more of an easier and comfortable process! They were great with preparing me to move, they offered me a range of services however I was already fairly set up in Australia and didn’t need their services that much! Greatly appreciated all their offers to help however.

My experience with OzTREKK was excellent. From the initial request for more information about Australian universities, to navigating the application process, and gaining advice about accommodations and life in Australia. OzTREKK provided invaluable information and I would not have been able to get to where I am without them. It was all excellent, especially having the students meet up in Canada before moving over.

Everything! You are doing a great job and an invaluable service! The crew in Ontario were a Godsend. nothing to complain about. Just praise. you got me in!

Oztrekk was amazing! The pre-departure resources removed a lot of the ambiguity around the administrative tasks associated with the process (visas, transcripts, health check etc.). I also appreciated all the opportunities to build connections with other students, both in my year and in years above, such as with the facebook groups, meet-ups etc. Also, [OzTREKK] was a huge help for settling in before classes started.  Finding accommodation was slightly stressful, but I think that’s just the nature of moving overseas. Oztrekk did a good job of helping me know what to expect for accommodation options. I feel like Oztrekk went above and beyond.
