From High School

Study in Australia

Guide for high school counsellors, students, and parents. Make Your Education a Destination!

Study in Australia

Many Australian universities offer professional undergraduate programs like medicine, dentistry, physiotherapy, law and more. 

If we’ve piqued your interest, you’re in the right place!

This section was created specifically for students graduating high school, as well as for high school counsellors and for parents looking for more information.

On this page, you’ll find information about the following topics:

  • Programs – Popular professional programs and more (we’re always working to add more!)
  • Student profiles – Meet OzTREKK students who have applied directly from high school
  • Why Australia – What students have to say about their time in Oz
  • Student Reviews – What do students say about their universities and programs?

Our goal is to make admissions and predeparture a breeze for students, counsellors, and university partners alike!

We work closely with our uni partners to ensure the entire process—from application to offer to landing in Australia—is as smooth as possible. Our services are 100% free, as we are funded by our university partners.

If your program of interest isn’t featured here, don’t worry. Just send us an email and we will be happy to help!

Programs

Unlike Canada, Australian universities allow students just leaving high school to enter professional degrees like those listed below. OzTREKK’s Australian university partners are highly ranked across all global ranking systems and offer internationally recognized, accredited programs taught by world-renowned professors.

Students can study in Australia then practice in Canada!

How it works

Personalized Counselling

What is the first step? Get in touch! We recommend scheduling a call to discuss plans and concerns. Even you’re considering other countries, we encourage you to let us know and we will try to develop a strategy with you to ensure you achieve your goals!

Application Processing

We manage the entire application process from beginning to end! Once a student has filled out an application, an OzTREKK admissions officer walks the student through every step and provides them with the entire list of documents required to complete their application.

Predeparture Prep

Received an offer? Congratulations! We’ll also guide you through the acceptance and predeparture processes, including topics like financing, student visas, health insurance, accommodation, and more!

Why Australia?

Why consider studying in Australia? We could list a million reasons, but we’ll stick to the top reasons our students claim helped them make the decision to head Down Under!

Incredible universities & programs

For students, Australia pretty much has it all, which is why it has more than 600,000 international students, making it one of world’s most popular foreign study destinations. One of the advantages or studying in Australia is that many programs offer multiple intakes throughout the year, so students can get started earlier. Here is the most typical cycle of the Australian academic calendar:

January – May: Applications start
May – August: Interviews, if applicable
September – November: Offers
September – January: Predeparture preparation
January – March: Programs start

 

Multicultural cities

Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Gold Coast, Perth… Australia is home to some of the most vibrant and multicultural cities in the world. From art and music to sports and recreation, Australia has it all! Most OzTREKK students are thrilled upon arrival, and don’t take long to settle comfortably into their new surroundings.

 

Location, location, location

Beach sunrises at Surfers Paradise on the east coast, and beach sunsets at Rottenest Island on the west coast. During their in-between times, OzTREKK students manage to see and do it all, with many students choosing to travel and sight-see all over the country. After all, it’s what Australia is famous for!

 

Student-friendly

Because Australia is such a popular destination for international studies, all Australian universities have designated departments designed to assist all international students—from helping them locate a great place to live to helping them solve a personal problem.

Most universities also have countless student clubs and societies, gyms, and places to eat. There’s no excuse not to get involved!
